Example: Find gcf of 29 and 35

Factors for 29: 1, 29
Factors for 35: 1, 5, 7, 35

Hence, GCf of 29 and 35 is 1

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 (29, 35).

Properties of GCF

The GCF of two or more given numbers is always less than the given numbers. Eg- GCF of 29 and 35 is 1, where 1 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.

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

Every factor of a number is an exact divisor of that number, example 1, 29 are exact divisors of 29 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. 29 and 35 are factors of themselves respectively.
1 is a factor of every number. Eg. 1 is a factor of 29 and also of 35.

Steps to find Factors of 29 and 35

Step 1. Find all the numbers that would divide 29 and 35 without leaving any remainder. Starting with the number 1 upto 14 (half of 29) and 1 upto 17 (half of 35). The number 1 and the number itself are always factors of the given number.

29 ÷ 1 : Remainder = 0

35 ÷ 1 : Remainder = 0

29 ÷ 29 : Remainder = 0

35 ÷ 5 : Remainder = 0

35 ÷ 7 : Remainder = 0

35 ÷ 35 : Remainder = 0

Hence, Factors of 29 are 1 and 29

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

Examples of GCF

A class has 29 boys and 35 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 29 and 35. Hence, GCF of 29 and 35 is 1.

What is the difference between GCF and LCM?

Major and simple difference betwen GCF and LCM is that GCF gives you the greatest common factor while LCM finds out the least common factor possible for the given numbers.

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

GCF and LCM of two numbers can be related as GCF(29, 35) = ( 29 * 35 ) / LCM(29, 35) = 1.

What is the GCF of 29 and 35?

GCF of 29 and 35 is 1.

Ram has 29 cans of Pepsi and 35 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 29 and 35. Hence GCF of 29 and 35 is 1. So the number of tables that can be arranged is 1.

Rubel is creating individual servings of starters for her birthday party. He has 29 pizzas and 35 hamburgers. He wants each serving to be identical, with no left overs. Can you help Rubel in arranging the same in greatest possible way?

The greatest number of servings Rubel can create would be equal to the GCF of 29 and 35. Thus GCF of 29 and 35 is 1.

Ariel is making ready to eat meals to share with friends. She has 29 bottles of water and 35 cans of food, which she would like to distribute equally, with no left overs. What is the greatest number of boxes Ariel can make?

The greatest number of boxes Ariel can make would be equal to GCF of 29 and 35. So the GCF of 29 and 35 is 1.

Mary has 29 blue buttons and 35 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 29 and 35. Hence, the GCF of 29 and 35 or the greatest arrangement is 1.

Kunal is making baskets full of nuts and dried fruits. He has 29 bags of nuts and 35 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 29 and 35. So the GCF of 29 and 35 is 1.
