Example: Find gcf of 105 and 35

Factors for 105: 1, 3, 5, 7, 15, 21, 35, 105
Factors for 35: 1, 5, 7, 35

Hence, GCf of 105 and 35 is 35

Definition of GCF

Greatest common factor commonly known as GCF of the two numbers is the highest possible number which completely divides given numbers, i.e. without leaving any remainder. It is represented as GCF (105, 35).

Properties of GCF

The GCF of two or more given numbers is always less than the given numbers. Eg- GCF of 105 and 35 is 35, where 35 is less than both the numbers.
If the given numbers are consecutive than GCF is always 1.
Product of two numbers is always equal to the product of their GCF and LCM.
The GCF of two given numbers where one of them is a prime number is either 1 or the number itself.

What are factors?

In mathematics, a factor is that number which divides into another number exactly, without leaving a remainder. A factor of a number can be positive or negative.

Properties of Factors

Every factor of a number is an exact divisor of that number, example 1, 3, 5, 7, 15, 21, 35, 105 are exact divisors of 105 and 1, 5, 7, 35 are exact divisors of 35.
Every number other than 1 has at least two factors, namely the number itself and 1.
Each number is a factor of itself. Eg. 105 and 35 are factors of themselves respectively.
1 is a factor of every number. Eg. 1 is a factor of 105 and also of 35.

Steps to find Factors of 105 and 35

Step 1. Find all the numbers that would divide 105 and 35 without leaving any remainder. Starting with the number 1 upto 52 (half of 105) and 1 upto 17 (half of 35). The number 1 and the number itself are always factors of the given number.

105 ÷ 1 : Remainder = 0

35 ÷ 1 : Remainder = 0

105 ÷ 3 : Remainder = 0

35 ÷ 5 : Remainder = 0

105 ÷ 5 : Remainder = 0

35 ÷ 7 : Remainder = 0

105 ÷ 7 : Remainder = 0

35 ÷ 35 : Remainder = 0

105 ÷ 15 : Remainder = 0

105 ÷ 21 : Remainder = 0

105 ÷ 35 : Remainder = 0

105 ÷ 105 : Remainder = 0

Hence, Factors of 105 are 1, 3, 5, 7, 15, 21, 35, and 105

And, Factors of 35 are 1, 5, 7, and 35

Examples of GCF

What is the relation between LCM and GCF (Greatest Common Factor)?

GCF and LCM of two numbers can be related as GCF(105, 35) = ( 105 * 35 ) / LCM(105, 35) = 35.

What is the GCF of 105 and 35?
