Common factors and multiples
The greatest common factor (also called the greatest common divisor or highest common factor) is the largest number that divides all your numbers exactly. The least common multiple is the smallest number they all divide into. You'll use the GCF to simplify fractions and the LCM to add fractions with different denominators or to work out when repeating events line up. Enter two or more whole numbers to see both, with each number's prime factorization.

Frequently asked questions
What is the GCF of 12, 18 and 30?
6. The prime factorizations are 2² × 3, 2 × 3² and 2 × 3 × 5, and the factors they share are 2 × 3.
What is the LCM of 4 and 6?
12, the smallest number both divide into.
How are GCF and LCM related?
For two numbers, GCF × LCM = the product of the numbers. For 4 and 6: 2 × 12 = 24 = 4 × 6.
