Greatest Common Factor (GCF) WORKSHEET
Find the greatest common factor of two whole numbers less than or equal to 100 and the least common multiple of two whole numbers less than or equal to 12. Use the distributive property to express a sum of two whole numbers 1–100 with a common factor as a multiple of a sum of two whole numbers with no common factor. For example, express 36 + 8 as 4 (9 + 2).
Greatest Common Factor (GCF) WORKSHEET DESCRIPTION
In this worksheet, students will consider common factors of pairs of numbers, list factors of numbers, use lists of factors to identify greatest common factors, and recognize when to calculate the greatest common factor to answer word problems.
Starting with common factors, in section A, students are asked to identify common factors of numbers such as 12 and 15 from a list of numbers from 1 - 9.
Next, we offer learners a systematic method for finding the GCF of pairs of numbers by asking them to first list factors of these numbers.
Section C consists of word problems which students will use GCF to answer.
All worksheets are created by the team of experienced teachers at Cazoom Math.
