GCF of 4 and 10
2
LCM of 4 and 10
20
How it works
Break each number into its prime factors:
- 4 = 2²
- 10 = 2 × 5
The GCF (2) multiplies the primes both share, at the lowest power each appears. The LCM (20) multiplies every prime that appears in either number, at the highest power — which is also 4 × 10 ÷ 2 = 20.
