How do you factor 66+11 using GCF?

Answer 1

Roman Alvarez

Factors of #66+11# are #11xx7#

As #66# is a multiple of #11#, GCF of #11# and #66# is #11#.

Hence we can write #66+11# as

#11xx6+11xx1# and now using distributive property of numbers

this becomes #11xx(6+1)=11xx7#

Hence factors of #66+11# are #11xx7#.

To factor 66 + 11 using the greatest common factor (GCF) method, first identify the common factors of both numbers. Then find the greatest common factor.

66 + 11 = 77

Now, find the factors of 77: 1 and 77 7 and 11

The greatest common factor of 66 and 11 is 1.

So, 66 + 11 cannot be factored further using the GCF method.
