2-7 Greatest Common Factor
The greatest common factor (GCF) of two or
more whole numbers is the greatest whole
number that divides evenly into each number.
One way to find the GCF of two or more numbers
is to list all the factors of each number. The GCF
is the greatest factor that appears in all the lists.

1
Understand the Problem
Rewrite the question as a statement.
• Find the greatest number of matching bracelets
you can make.
List the important information:
• There are 120 red beads, 100 white beads,
and 45 blue beads.
• Each bracelet must have the same
number of red, white, and blue beads.
The answer will be the GCF of 120, 100, and 45.
