Here I am trying to remember GCF lmao what's happening with my brain.

[@zahraasibaii4265]

Same here

[@rebeccarojas304]

In minutes 1:54 through 2:01, you said the GCF is the product of the two numbers in common, and then you proceeded to multiply 2x2 because those are the two numbers in common. However, in minute 2:59, you did not multiply the two numbers in common, instead you just left it at 3. Why is that?

[@Hyunafazza]

yes i thought of that too i answered 9 confidently
