To find: The Greatest Common Factor (GCF) of given group of numbers.
Answer to Problem 46WE
The GCF of group of numbers 348, 426 is 6.
Explanation of Solution
Given information:
The given group of numbers is 348, 426.
Formula used:
The greatest common factor (GCF), also known as the greatest common divisor, of two or more non-zero integers x and y is the largest positive integer by which both integers can be divided.
The GCF is calculated by prime factorization of each number.
Calculations:
The given group of numbers is 348, 426.
In prime factorization form integers 348 and 426 may be written as
The factors common to both numbers are 2 and 3 that implies each number is divisible by number
Thus, the greatest divisor of 348 and 426 is 6. Hence,
Conclusion:
The GCF of group of numbers 348, 426 is 6.
