    What is the Greatest Common Divisor of 30 and 40?

    Answer

    GCF (HCF) of 30 and 40 is
    10

    Common factors: 1, 2, 5, 10

    10 divides both: 30 ÷ 10 = 3, 40 ÷ 10 = 4 — and 3 and 4 share no factor but 1, so no larger number divides both.

    30 = 2 × 3 × 5

    40 = 23 × 5

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

    GCF = 2 × 5 = 10
