    and

    What is the Greatest Common Divisor of 12 and 52?

    Answer

    GCF of 12 and 52 is
    4

    (Four)

    Finding GCF for 12 and 52 using all factors (divisors) listing

    The first method to find GCF for numbers 12 and 52 is to list all factors for both numbers and pick the highest common one:

    All factors of 12: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 12

    All factors of 52: 1, 2, 4, 13, 26, 52

    So the Greatest Common Factor for 12 and 52 is 4

    Finding GCF for 12 and 52 by Prime Factorization

    The second method to find GCF for numbers 12 and 52 is to list all Prime Factors for both numbers and multiply the common ones:

    All Prime Factors of 12: 2, 2, 3

    All Prime Factors of 52: 2, 2, 13

    As we can see there are Prime Factors common to both numbers: 2, 2

    Now we need to multiply them to find GCF: 2 × 2 = 4
