What to Focus On

  • HCF means the greatest common factor.
  • HCF and GCD mean the same thing.
  • The largest square tile that fits both dimensions of a rectangle uses the HCF of the two lengths.

  • A prime has exactly two factors: 1 and itself.
  • Prime factorisation writes a number as a product of primes.
  • The division method is a stepwise way to find prime factorisation.

  • All factors can be built from the prime factors.
  • Every subpart of the prime factorisation gives a factor.
  • 1 is always a factor.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

The largest common factor is always the smaller number in the pair.

Any number that is a common factor can be called the HCF.

To find HCF using prime factorisation, the highest powers of common primes should be taken.
