What is the Greatest Common Divisor of 2 and 59?

Answer

GCF (HCF) of 2 and 59 is

1

Common factors: 1

Only 1 divides both: 2 and 59 share no prime factor.

Such numbers are called coprime (relatively prime); their LCM is just the product: 2 × 59 = 118.

2 — prime

59 — prime

Prime	2	59	Lowest power
2	2	—	—
59	—	59	—

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

GCF = 1
