GCF example:
The first step is to find all divisors of each number. For instance, let us find the GCF(3).
In this case, we have:
The second step is to determine which are the common divisors. It is not difficult to see that the 'Greatest Common Factor' or 'Divisor' for 3 is 3. The GCF is the largest common positive integer that divides all the numbers (3) without a remainder.
In the name greatest common divisor, the adjective "greatest" may be replaced by "highest", and the word "divisor" may be replaced by "factor", so that other names include highest common factor (hcf), greatest common measure, among others.
So, the GCF is also known as:
- Greatest common divisor (gcd);
- Highest common factor (hcf);
- Greatest common measure (gcm), or
- Highest common divisor
