What two numbers have a GCF of 279?

Here we will explain and show you how to find what two numbers have the Greatest Common Factor (GCF) of 279.

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 279. Below is the beginning list of multiples of 279 (1 through 7) in numerical order.

1. 279
2. 558
3. 837
4. 1116
5. 1395
6. 1674
7. 1953
etc...

Two numbers that have a GCF of 279 can be 279 and any other number on the list above. Thus, two numbers that have a GCF of 279 are:

279 & 558
279 & 837
279 & 1116
etc...

That is not all! Any combination of any multiple of 279 and "odd" multiples of 279 will also have GCF of 279. 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 279.

558 & 837
558 & 1395
1116 & 1395
1116 & 1953
etc...

Like we stated above, there are infinite combinations of two numbers whose GCF is 279. The lists we created can go on forever.
