Explain how to find the GCF of 12 and 18.

6

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the greatest common factor of two numbers you find the largest number that can evenly go into both numbers

For example, the greatest number that can even;y go into 12 and 18 is 6

6 x 2 = 12

6 x 3 = 18

There is no number greater than six that can evenly go into both of those numbers therefore it must be the GCF

The GCF of 12 and 18 is 6 and here's how you get it...

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you need to compare the factors of 12 and 18.

12: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 12

18: 1, 2, 3, 6, 9, 18

To get the factors of the number, look for want numbers can be divided by that number and still get a whole number. Ex. (12 / 3 = 4) 3 is a factor of 12.

The GREATEST common factor you see they have in common is the GCF.

If this helps, please give me brainliest.

this question is very old so I am just getting point off of it
