This math topic explores the method of finding the greatest common factor (GCF) using populated Venn diagrams, which is a visual approach to factorization. Each problem provides two numbers where students are required to identify common factors and use them to determine the GCF by multiplying the shared factors contained in the center of the Venn diagram. This topic is part of a broader introduction to factoring and the concepts of the greatest common factor, essential for enhancing mathematical proficiency in factorization techniques.
