Question

whats the largest number that both go into 8 and 52

Answer 1

The least common factor, or LCF, of 8 and 52 is 4.

Factors of 8 = 1 , 2 , 4 , 8

Cancel out 8 because it doesn't go into 52.

52 / 1 = 52
52 / 2 = 26
52 / 4 = 13

Since 4 goes into 52, and it is the highest factor of 8, the answer is 4.

Hope this helped☺☺
