1 answer

To find the Greatest Common Factor (GCF) of the given pairs of numbers, we can use the prime factorization method or the Euclidean algorithm. Here, I will calculate the GCF for each pair of numbers you provided.

1. GCF of 315 and 450:

  • Prime factorization of 315:

    • 315 = 3 × 3 × 5 × 7 = \(3^2 \times 5^1 \times 7^1\)
  • Prime factorization of 450:

    • 450 = 2 × 3 × 3 × 5 × 5 = \(2^1 \times 3^2 \times 5^2\)
  • GCF:

    • Take the lowest power of each common prime factor:
    • GCF = \(3^2 \times 5^1 = 9 \times 5 = 45\)

GCF(315, 450) = 45

2. GCF of 60 and 792:

  • Prime factorization of 60:

    • 60 = 2 × 2 × 3 × 5 = \(2^2 \times 3^1 \times 5^1\)
  • Prime factorization of 792:

    • 792 = 2 × 2 × 2 × 3 × 11 = \(2^3 \times 3^1 \times 11^1\)
  • GCF:

    • GCF = \(2^2 \times 3^1 = 4 \times 3 = 12\)

GCF(60, 792) = 12

3. GCF of 585 and 567:

  • Prime factorization of 585:

    • 585 = 3 × 5 × 39 = 3 × 5 × 3 × 13 = \(3^2 \times 5^1 \times 13^1\)
  • Prime factorization of 567:

    • 567 = 3 × 189 = 3 × 3 × 63 = 3 × 3 × 3 × 21 = \(3^4 \times 7^1\)
  • GCF:

    • GCF = \(3^2 = 9\)

GCF(585, 567) = 9

4. GCF of 75 and 150:

  • Prime factorization of 75:

    • 75 = 3 × 5 × 5 = \(3^1 \times 5^2\)
  • Prime factorization of 150:

    • 150 = 2 × 3 × 5 × 5 = \(2^1 \times 3^1 \times 5^2\)
  • GCF:

    • GCF = \(3^1 \times 5^2 = 3 \times 25 = 75\)

GCF(75, 150) = 75

Summary of GCFs:

  • GCF(315, 450) = 45
  • GCF(60, 792) = 12
  • GCF(585, 567) = 9
  • GCF(75, 150) = 75
