Question

Which shows 24+54 written using GCF and the distributive property

Answer 1

To write it in the form of GCF and applyling distributive property , first of all we have to find the GCF of both the numbers.

So first step should be to find the GCF of the two numbers, 24 and 54

To find GCF , lets try to write the prime factorisation of both the numbers

24= 2*2*2*3

54=2*3*3*3

So the GCF is 2*3 = 6

So lets factor out 6 ,

we get

6(4+ 9),

This is the format shown by using GCF and distributive property , here GCF is 6 , and now we can apply the distributive property.

Answer 2

If you just want to know what is the greatest common factor of 24 and 54, it is 6. Usually, this is written as

gcf(24,54) = 6
