Question

Find the Highest Common Factor (HCF) of 196 and 12

Answer 1

Answer:

The greatest common factor is 4

Step-by-step explanation:

1.Find the prime factorization of 12

         a) 12 = 2 × 2 × 3

2.Find the prime factorization of 196

         a) 196 = 2 × 2 × 7 × 7

To find the GCF, multiply all the prime factors common to both numbers:

          a)GCF=2x2

Therefore, GCF = 2 × 2

GCF = 4
