2. Write all numbers as the product of its prime factors
Prime factors of 117 | = | 32 . 13 |
Prime factors of 150 | = | 2 . 3 . 52 |
Prime factors of 308 | = | 22 . 7 . 11 |
3. Choose the common prime factors with the lowest exponent
Common prime factors: None
Common prime factors with the lowest exponent: None
4. Calculate the Greatest Common Factor or GCF
Remember, to find the GCF of several numbers you must multiply the common prime factors with the lowest exponent.
Since there are not common prime factors the GCF is 1
