How do you find out GCF (Greatest Common Factor) and LCM (Least Common Multiple)?

To find the GCF, first you must factor the 2 or more numbers. The GCF is the highest factor the numbers have in common. for example: you have 12 and 8. If you factor out the numbers for 12, you get
1,2,3,4,6,12
For 8, you get:
1,2,4,8
the GCF of this pair is 4 because it is the highest number that goes into both 8 and 12.
To find the LCM, you must find the first number that was multiplied and it must be the same. lets take 3 and 5. Multiply 3 by as many numbers you can think of. For now, lets just go up to 10.
3, 6, 9, 12 15, 18, 21, 24, 27, 30
now to the same for 5:
5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 45, 50
in both 3 and 5, the first set of numbers that match in 30- therefore the LCM of 3 and 5 in 30. I hope this helps!

Answer:

\boxed{V = 434.9 \ cm^3 }

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume of Sphere = \frac{4}{3} \pi r^3

Where r = 4.7 cm

V = \frac{4}{3} (3.14)(4.7)^3

V = \frac{4}{3} (3.14)(103.8)

V = \frac{1304.7}{3}

V = 434.9 cm³  (Up to 1 dp)
