What two numbers have a GCF of 159?

Here we will explain and show you how to find what two numbers have the Greatest Common Factor (GCF) of 159.

There is actually an infinite number of answers to this question. First, note that both the numbers we are looking for must be multiples of 159. Below is the beginning list of multiples of 159 (1 through 7) in numerical order.

1. 159
2. 318
3. 477
4. 636
5. 795
6. 954
7. 1113
etc...

Two numbers that have a GCF of 159 can be 159 and any other number on the list above. Thus, two numbers that have a GCF of 159 are:

159 & 318
159 & 477
159 & 636
etc...

That is not all! Any combination of any multiple of 159 and "odd" multiples of 159 will also have GCF of 159. We numbered the multiples above so it would be easy to identify the "odd" multiples (number 1, 3, 5, 7, etc). Thus, here are some more examples of two numbers that also have a GCF of 159.

318 & 477
318 & 795
636 & 795
636 & 1113
etc...

Like we stated above, there are infinite combinations of two numbers whose GCF is 159. The lists we created can go on forever.
