<h3>What is the greatest common factor of 180 and 240?</h3>
The greatest common factor (GCF) is also known as greatest common divisor (GCD).
First we have to find the prime factorization of 180
180 = 2² × 3² × 5
Then we have to find the prime factorization of 240
240 = 2⁴ × 3 × 5
Now we have to multiply the common factors to both numbers with less exponent.
GCF = 2² × 3 × 5 = 60
Answer : GCF(180,240) = 60
Hope this helps!
