    What is the Greatest Common Divisor of 12 and 7?

    Answer

    GCF (HCF) of 12 and 7 is
    1

    Common factors: 1

    Only 1 divides both: 12 and 7 share no prime factor.

    Such numbers are called coprime (relatively prime); their LCM is just the product: 12 × 7 = 84.

    12 = 22 × 3

    7 — prime

    — = power 0: the prime is not a factor of this number, so it cannot be in the GCF.

    GCF = 1
