Assignment: Greatest Common Factor - Link!
*For the first sets of numbers (1 - 3), list the factors in the way you know how.
*For finding the prime factorization (4 - 6), you will build a factor tree like we did in class and list the prime factorization. (Example: 12's prime factorization is 2 x 2 x 3 or 2 squared x 3)
Next explore ... do you know what the GCF for the two given numbers are? What do the prime factorizations of the two given numbers have in common? Does that give you the GCF somehow?
*For problems 7 - 8, you should look for connections between GCFs and the tree problem.
*For the patterns, find the number and make your explanation short and sweet ... but accurate. Writing the pattern as a variable equation is perfect if you want to try it out!
