Handy GCF of Decimals Calculator to know the GCF of decimals 0.4, 0.005 i.e. 0.01 the largest integer that divides all the numbers leaving a remainder zero.
Greatest common factor (GCF) of 0.4, 0.005 is 0.01.
GCF(0.4, 0.005) = 0.01
GCF of 0.4, 0.005
Enter two or more decimals separated by "commas"
Ex: 0.2, 0.3 or 0.4, 0.5, 0.6
Given numbers are 0.4,0.005. The highest number of digits after the decimal point in the given case is 3
Thus, in order to get rid of the decimal point we need to multiply them with 1000. On doing so, they are as follows
0.4 x 1000 = 400
0.005 x 1000 = 5
On finding the GCF of 400,5 we get the Greatest Common Factor as 5
GCF of 0.4,0.005 is 0.01
| 5 | 400, 5 |
| 80, 1 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 5 = 5
Divide the GCF by 1000 as we multiplied by it to make the given numbers as integers in the initial step.
By dividing the GCF we get = 5/1000 = 0.01
Therefore the Greatest Common Factor of 0.4,0.005 is 0.01
