You can use prime factorization to find the GCF of a set of numbers. This often works better for large numbers, where generating lists of all factors can be time-consuming.
Here’s how to find the GCF of a set of numbers using prime factorization:
* List the prime factors of each number.
* Circle every common prime factor — that is, every prime factor that’s a factor of every number in the set.
* Multiply all the circled numbers.
The result is the GCF.
For example, suppose you want to find the GCF of 28, 42, and 70. Step 1 says to list the prime factors of each number. Step 2 says to circle every prime factor that’s common to all three numbers (as shown in the following figure).
As you can see, the numbers 2 and 7 are common factors of all three numbers. Multiply these circled numbers together:
2 · 7 = 14
Thus, the GCF of 28, 42, and 70 is 14.

Answer:
11.11%
Step-by-step explanation:
So the question is:
$180 * (x)% = $y
Therefore $180 - $y = $160
Now:
180 - 160 = 20
Therefore; $20 is the discount
Now per cent of discount:
20/180 * 100 = 11.111111111111111111111%
therefore: per cent of discount is 11.11% (rounded to two decimal place)
Answer/Step-by-step explanation:
Let x = 4 (you and 3 friends)
Ticket cost per head = $5.50
Drink cost per head = $2.50
Popcorn cost per head = $4.00
<em>Expression representing total amount of money spent = $5.50(x) + $2.50(x) + $4.00(x)</em>
<em />
Evaluate the expression by plugging in the value of x = 4
Total amount of money spent = $5.50(4) + $2.50(4) + $4.00(4)
= $22 + $10 + $16 = $48
<em>Total amount of money spent = $48</em>
