You can put this solution on YOUR website! Greatest Common Factor: The highest number that divides exactly into two or more numbers. It is the "greatest" thing for simplifying fractions!
What is the BIGGEST number that evenly divides 54 and 96?
How about 6?
54/6 = 9
96/6 = 16
Yes, that's correct.
The least common multiple (LCM) of two numbers is the smallest number (not including zero) that is a multiple of both.
Multiples of 3O: 30, 60, 90, 120, 150, 180, 210
Multiples of 42: 42, 84, 126, 168, 210
On the list provided, what number is found in both?
The number 210 is found in both.
Then 210 is the LCM.
