Answer 1

Answer:

Nate made a mistake. He should have got 24 as Least common factor.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given number are 8 and 12.

To find the GCF or LCF we have to list multiples.

For LCF

• List the multiples of each number until at least one of the multiples appears on all lists.
• Find the smallest number that is on all of the lists.
• This number is the LCM.

For GCF

• List the multiples of each number until at least one of the multiples appears on all lists.
• Find the Biggest number that is on all of the lists.
• This number is the GCF

The least common multiple of 8 and 12 is 24.

The Greatest common multiply of 8 and 12 is 4.

Hence, Nate is wrong. Nate should have found 24.
