Another way to find GCF is by the euclidean algorithm. Even though the name sounds intimidating, it is probably the easiest method, especially if the numbers are large.

The method consists of calculating the difference of the two given numbers. Then among the two numbers and the difference, repeat with the two smaller numbers until the difference is zero. The smallest surviving number is then the GCF.

As an example for 64 and 28.

64-28=36. Choose the smaller two numbers and repeat

36-28=8 Choose the smaller two numbers and repeat

28-8=20 Choose the smaller two numbers and repeat

20-8=12 Choose the smaller two numbers and repeat

12-8=4 Choose the smaller two numbers and repeat

8-2*4=0 therefore 4 is the GCF.

As a short-cut, when the larger number is much larger than the smaller, we can subtract a multiple of the smaller number. Example again using 64 and 28.

64-28=36

36-28=8

28-3*8=28-24=4

8-2*4=0 Therefore 4 is the GCF of 64 and 28.

As a more adventurous example, let's find the GCF of 3888 and 3774.

3888-3774=114

3774-30*114=354

354-3*114=12

12-8*12=6

12-2*6=0 Therefore 6 is the GCF of 3888 and 3774.

ololo11 [35]

Answer:

Susan has more books than Michael.

Step-by-step explanation:

If Susan has 50% more books and Michael has 40 books, that means Susan has 1.5 times 40 = 60

40 + 8 = 48

60 is more than 48, so Susan has more books than Michael

Y - y₁ = m(x - x₁)
y - 5 = -8(x - 2)
y - 5 = -8(x) + 8(2)
y - 5 = -8x + 16

Is the following statement always, sometimes, or never true? “The supplement of an acute angle is an obtuse angle.” Explain your
balu736 [363]

Answer:

Always

Step-by-step explanation:

An acute angle is an angle that is less than 90. Supplementary angles add up to 180.

So 180-89= 91

An obtuse angle is any angle that is greater than 90.

Here's a link to a better explanation.
