Which statements are true about greatest common factors? Check all that apply.
The GCF is the largest number or variable that divides evenly into all the terms.
The GCF is always an even number.
The GCF is the largest number or variable that divides evenly into most of the terms. The GCF is always an odd number.
The GCF is the number and/or variable that can be undistributed in an algebraic expression.
Answers
Answer:
The first and last statements are true.
Step-by-step explanation:
The greatest common factor does not necessarily need to be even or odd all the time. It depends on the numbers you are trying to find the gcf from. Greatest common factors are used in factoring, which will help when it comes to writing equations for parabolas and/or simplifying equations or expressions. The gcf has to divide evenly in all the numbers/variables.
Answer:
The GCF is the largest number or variable that divides evenly into all the terms; The GCF is the number and/or variable that can be undistributed in an algebraic expression.
Step-by-step explanation:
The first answer and last one because The GCF is the largest number and/or variable that you may find when you divide your expression evenly
The last answer is also valid because the number or variable can be undistributed in said algebraic expression.
