[tex] \bold{List\: of\: Factor :}[/tex]

• The factors of 210 are: 1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 7, 10, 14, 15, 21, 30, 35, 42, 70, 105, 210

• The factors of 420 are: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 10, 12, 14, 15, 20, 21, 28, 30, 35, 42, 60, 70, 84, 105, 140, 210, 420

The Greatest Common Factor is the largest of these numbers. For 210 and 420, it is: 210

[tex]\bold{Prime \: Factorizations : }[/tex]

• The prime factors of 210 are: 2, 3, 5, 7

• The prime factors of 420 are: 2, 2, 3, 5, 7

• List of all the common prime factors: 2, 3, 5, 7

• Find the product of all common prime factors: 2 * 3 * 5 * 7 = 210

• The Greatest Common Factor is the result of the previous step. For 210, and 420 is: 210

[tex] \bold{Euclidean\: Algorithm : }[/tex]

• Sort the numbers into ascending order:

210, 420

• Take the smallest number (210) as your divisor

• Work out the modulo operation of the remaining number(s) and the divisor:

420 mod 210 = 0

• Gather the divisor and all of the remainders and sort them in ascending order. Remove any duplicates and 0.

• As there is only one number left (the divisor), it's the Greatest Common Factor

• Therefore the Greatest Common Factor of 210 and 420 is: 210

[tex]\bold{Upside \:Down\: Division : }[/tex]

• Start by writing all of your numbers next to each other:

[tex] \large \bold{ \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: 210 \: 420}[/tex]

• Find a prime number which can divide at least two of your numbers by (without remainder).

Write that prime number on the left hand side:

[tex] { \large {\: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \colorbox{red}{ 2}} \large\bold{210 \: 420}}[/tex]

• Divide your original numbers by the prime and write the quotients under original numbers:

[tex] \large \bold{ \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \colorbox{red}2} \large \bold{ 210 \: 420} \\ \underline{\large \bold{ \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: 105 \: 210}}[/tex]

• Repeat until the whole table is complete:

[tex] \underline{ \large \bold \colorbox{red}{2} \large \bold{210 \: 420}} \\ \underline{\large \bold \colorbox{red}{3} \large \bold{105 \: 210}} \\ \underline{ \large \bold \colorbox{red}{5} \large \bold{35 \: 70}} \\ \underline{\large\bold\colorbox{red}{7} \large \bold{7 \: 14}} \\ \large \bold{ \: \: \: \: \: \: \: 1 \: \: \: 2}[/tex]

• Find the GCF by multiplying all values in the orange column:

2 * 3 * 5 * 7 = 210

• The Greatest Common Factor of 210 and 420 is: 210

[tex] \large \bold{Binary\:(Stein's) \: Algorithm : }[/tex]

• Sort the numbers into ascending order:

210, 420

• Let your inital GCF equal 1.

• All of the numbers are even. Divide all of them by 2 and multiply your GCF by 2:

• 105, 210

• GCF = 1 * 2 = 2

• Divide all of the remaining even values by 2 (if there are any):

• 105, 105

• Sort the values into ascending order (if they aren't already). Remove any duplicates:

105

• There is only one number left, 105. Multiply it by your current GCF:

• GCF = 2 * 105 = 210

• Therefore the Greatest Common Factor of 210 and 420 is: 210
