Whats the gcf of 50,40
whats the gcf of 14,56,63

9514 1404 393

Step-by-step explanation:

The GCF can be no larger than the difference between the numbers. That would be the first value you want to check to see if it is a factor of the numbers.

The difference is 10, which is a factor of both 40 and 50.

  GCF(40, 50) = 10

__

You can figure the GCF pairwise, as GCF(14, 56) = 14; then GCF(14, 63) = 7. Or, you can look at the smallest difference between any pair of numbers. Here, that is 63 -56 = 7, which is a factor of all three numbers.

  GCF(14, 56, 63) = 7

Additional comment

Euclid's algorithm has you compute the remainder from division of the largest by the smallest. When that remainder is non-zero, it replaces the largest, and you repeat. When the remainder is zero, the smallest is the GCF.

For example, let's look at the GCF of 14 and 63.

  63/14 = 4 r 7

  14/7 = 2 r 0 . . . . . 7 is the divisor, so is the greatest common factor

//blooming serenity//

beautiful in the morning

mysterious at night

wonderous nature souring

with all it's mystical might

the flower that blooms

to the fox that looms

nocturnal creatures

with various features

a blooming flower soon in sight

as a new little hatchling fears to take flight  

afraid to leave it's calming nest,

but dear little bird, mother knows best

as sure as there are stars in the sky,

life is not about who, where what, when or why-

it's the journey that follows

adventures we swallow

of   nature's deep wonders,

natural disasters and storm's thunders.

blooming serenity

life and nature, truly is heavenly.
