What is GCF of 154 and 801?


Steps to find GCF of 154 and 801

Example: Find gcf of 154 and 801

  • Factors for 154: 1, 2, 7, 11, 14, 22, 77, 154
  • Factors for 801: 1, 3, 9, 89, 267, 801

How do you explain GCF in mathematics?

GCF or greatest common factor of two or more numbers is defined as largest possible number or integer which is the factor of all given number or in other words we can say that largest possible common number which completely divides the given numbers. GCF of two numbers can be represented as GCF (154, 801).

Properties of GCF

  • Given two numbers 154 and 801, such that GCF is 1 where 1 will always be less than 154 and 801.
  • GCF of two numbers is always equal to 1 in case given numbers are consecutive.
  • The product of GCF and LCM of two given numbers is equal to the product of two numbers.
  • The GCF of two given numbers is either 1 or the number itself if one of them is a prime number.

How can we define factors?

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

Properties of Factors

  • Each number is a factor of itself. Eg. 154 and 801 are factors of themselves respectively.
  • Every number other than 1 has at least two factors, namely the number itself and 1.
  • Every factor of a number is an exact divisor of that number, example 1, 2, 7, 11, 14, 22, 77, 154 are exact divisors of 154 and 1, 3, 9, 89, 267, 801 are exact divisors of 801.
  • 1 is a factor of every number. Eg. 1 is a factor of 154 and also of 801.
  • Every number is a factor of zero (0), since 154 x 0 = 0 and 801 x 0 = 0.

Steps to find Factors of 154 and 801

  • Step 1. Find all the numbers that would divide 154 and 801 without leaving any remainder. Starting with the number 1 upto 77 (half of 154) and 1 upto 400 (half of 801). The number 1 and the number itself are always factors of the given number.
    154 ÷ 1 : Remainder = 0
    801 ÷ 1 : Remainder = 0
    154 ÷ 2 : Remainder = 0
    801 ÷ 3 : Remainder = 0
    154 ÷ 7 : Remainder = 0
    801 ÷ 9 : Remainder = 0
    154 ÷ 11 : Remainder = 0
    801 ÷ 89 : Remainder = 0
    154 ÷ 14 : Remainder = 0
    801 ÷ 267 : Remainder = 0
    154 ÷ 22 : Remainder = 0
    801 ÷ 801 : Remainder = 0
    154 ÷ 77 : Remainder = 0
    154 ÷ 154 : Remainder = 0

Hence, Factors of 154 are 1, 2, 7, 11, 14, 22, 77, and 154

And, Factors of 801 are 1, 3, 9, 89, 267, and 801

Examples of GCF

Sammy baked 154 chocolate cookies and 801 fruit and nut cookies to package in plastic containers for her friends at college. She wants to divide the cookies into identical boxes so that each box has the same number of each kind of cookies. She wishes that each box should have greatest number of cookies possible, how many plastic boxes does she need?

Since Sammy wants to pack greatest number of cookies possible. So for calculating total number of boxes required we need to calculate the GCF of 154 and 801.
GCF of 154 and 801 is 1.

A class has 154 boys and 801 girls. A choir teacher wants to form a choir team from this class such that the students are standing in equal rows also girls or boys will be in each row. Teacher wants to know the greatest number of students that could be in each row, can you help him?

To find the greatest number of students that could be in each row, we need to find the GCF of 154 and 801. Hence, GCF of 154 and 801 is 1.

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

GCF and LCM of two numbers can be related as GCF(154, 801) = ( 154 * 801 ) / LCM(154, 801) = 1.

What is the GCF of 154 and 801?

GCF of 154 and 801 is 1.

Ram has 154 cans of Pepsi and 801 cans of Coca Cola. He wants to create identical refreshment tables that will be organized in his house warming party. He also doesn't want to have any can left over. What is the greatest number of tables that Ram can arrange?

To find the greatest number of tables that Ram can stock we need to find the GCF of 154 and 801. Hence GCF of 154 and 801 is 1. So the number of tables that can be arranged is 1.

Mary has 154 blue buttons and 801 white buttons. She wants to place them in identical groups without any buttons left, in the greatest way possible. Can you help Mary arranging them in groups?

Greatest possible way in which Mary can arrange them in groups would be GCF of 154 and 801. Hence, the GCF of 154 and 801 or the greatest arrangement is 1.

Kamal is making identical balloon arrangements for a party. He has 154 maroon balloons, and 801 orange balloons. He wants each arrangement tohave the same number of each color. What is the greatest number of arrangements that he can make if every balloon is used?

The greatest number of arrangements that he can make if every balloon is used would be equal to GCF of 154 and 801. So the GCF of 154 and 801 is 1.

Kunal is making baskets full of nuts and dried fruits. He has 154 bags of nuts and 801 bags of dried fruits. He wants each basket to be identical, containing the same combination of bags of nuts and bags of driesn fruits, with no left overs. What is the greatest number of baskets that Kunal can make?

the greatest number of baskets that Kunal can make would be equal to GCF of 154 and 801. So the GCF of 154 and 801 is 1.
