Frequently Asked Questions
What is GCF?▾
The Greatest Common Factor (also GCD — Greatest Common Divisor) is the largest number that divides all the given integers without remainder. E.g. GCF(48, 36) = 12.
What is GCF used for?▾
Simplifying fractions (divide numerator and denominator by their GCF), factoring algebraic expressions, and number theory.
What is the Euclidean algorithm?▾
GCD(a, b) = GCD(b, a mod b), repeated until the remainder is 0. It is the most efficient algorithm for computing GCD, developed in ancient Greece.
