What two numbers have a GCF of 2991?

Here we will explain and show you how to find what two numbers have the Greatest Common Factor (GCF) of 2991.

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 2991. Below is the beginning list of multiples of 2991 (1 through 7) in numerical order.

1. 2991
2. 5982
3. 8973
4. 11964
5. 14955
6. 17946
7. 20937
etc...

Two numbers that have a GCF of 2991 can be 2991 and any other number on the list above. Thus, two numbers that have a GCF of 2991 are:

2991 & 5982
2991 & 8973
2991 & 11964
etc...

That is not all! Any combination of any multiple of 2991 and "odd" multiples of 2991 will also have GCF of 2991. 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 2991.

5982 & 8973
5982 & 14955
11964 & 14955
11964 & 20937
etc...

Like we stated above, there are infinite combinations of two numbers whose GCF is 2991. The lists we created can go on forever.
