Question

The Greatest common factor between 14 and 24​

Answer 1

The greatest common factor between 14 and 24 is 2 because

The factors of 14 that divides 14 without a remainder are 1,2, and 7

The factors of 24 that divides 14 without a remainder are 1,2,3,4,6,8,and 12

Therefore 2 is the greatest factor between 14 and 24.

Answer 2

For this case we have that by definition, the Greatest Common Factor or GFC of two numbers is given by the biggest factor that divides both without leaving residue. We should look for the GFC of 14 and 24.

14: 1,2,7,14

24: 1,2,3,4,6,8,12,24

Thus, it is observed that the GFC of both numbers is 2.

Answer:

2
