Find the GCF of 30m+12n
To find the greatest common factor (GCF) of 30m+12n, we need to find the largest expression that can divide both terms, 30m and 12n.
First, let's factor out the greatest common factor from each term:
30m = 2 * 3 * 5 * m
12n = 2 * 2 * 3 * n
Now, let's look at the common factors in both terms:
The common factors are 2 and 3.
To find the GCF, we multiply the common factors together:
GCF = 2 * 3 = 6
Therefore, the GCF of 30m+12n is 6.
To find the greatest common factor (GCF) of 30m and 12n, we first need to factorize the expressions.
30m can be written as 2 × 3 × 5 × m.
12n can be written as 2 × 2 × 3 × n.
Next, we identify the factors that are common to both expressions. In this case, the common factors are 2 and 3.
The GCF is the product of these common factors:
GCF = 2 × 3 = 6.
So, the GCF of 30m and 12n is 6.
To find the greatest common factor (GCF) of 30m+12n, we need to find the largest factor that both 30m and 12n have in common.
First, let's factorize 30m and 12n:
30m = 2 * 3 * 5 * m
12n = 2 * 2 * 3 * n
Now, let's compare the common factors:
- Both 30m and 12n have a factor of 2, since 30m has two 2's and 12n has two 2's.
- Both 30m and 12n have a factor of 3.
- Neither 30m nor 12n have a factor of 5 or n that is common.
Therefore, the GCF of 30m and 12n is 2 * 3, which is equal to 6.
So, the GCF of 30m+12n is 6.
