Assignment: 08-Greatest Common Factor
Practice 1: 10-GCF LCM Practice
Practice 2: 11-GCF LCM Practice
Greatest Common Factor, or GCF, is exactly what it sounds like it should be.

There are two different ways we can find the greatest common factor. The first would be by listing all the factors for the smaller number, and circling the ones that are the same as the larger.
The other way is pictured below. I like to call it the Cake Method. The steps are explained around it.
