2. Write all numbers as the product of its prime factors
Prime factors of 28 | = | 22 . 7 |
Prime factors of 64 | = | 26 |
Prime factors of 92 | = | 22 . 23 |
Prime factors of 96 | = | 25 . 3 |
3. Choose the common prime factors with the lowest exponent
Common prime factors: 2
Common prime factors with the lowest exponent: 22
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.
GCF = 22 = 4
