Answer:

GCF of 112 and 42 = 14

Explanation:

One way is to find the prime factors of each of the numbers and pick out the common ones.

For example

Find the GCF of 112 and 42:-

112 = 2 * 2 * 2 * 2 * 7

42 = 2 * 3 * 7

There are a pair of 2's and a pair of 7's in both lists so the

GCF = 2*7 = 14.
