    What's the Greatest Common Factor (GCF) of 36, 48 and 144?

    Answer

    GCF of 36, 48 and 144 is
    12

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

    12 divides all three: 36 ÷ 12 = 3, 48 ÷ 12 = 4, 144 ÷ 12 = 12 — and 3, 4 and 12 have no factor but 1 common to all of them, so no larger number divides all three.

    36 = 22 × 32

    48 = 24 × 3

    144 = 24 × 32

    FAQ

    What's the Greatest Common Factor (GCF) of 36, 48 and 144?

    GCF of 36, 48 and 144 is 12

    What prime factors do 36, 48 and 144 share?

    All three factorizations contain 2 × 2 × 3, and multiplying those shared primes gives 12 — exactly the greatest common factor.

    Can you get the GCF of 36, 48 and 144 two numbers at a time?

    Yes. The GCF of 36 and 48 is 12, and the GCF of 12 and 144 is 12 — the same answer, because the greatest common factor is associative and does not depend on the order of the three numbers.

    How does the GCF simplify the ratio 36 : 48 : 144?

    Divide every term by the GCF 12: 36 ÷ 12 = 3, 48 ÷ 12 = 4 and 144 ÷ 12 = 12. So 36 : 48 : 144 in lowest terms is 3 : 4 : 12, and no whole number other than 1 divides all three of those.
