Documenting Shared Batch Sizes
As a production coordinator, you are tasked with standardizing the shipping batches for two different inventory sets: 54 units of 'Component A' and 36 units of 'Component B'. To find the largest identical batch size possible for both items, you must use the four-step prime factorization method to determine the Greatest Common Factor (GCF). Write a brief procedural explanation that lists the prime factorization for both 54 and 36, identifies which specific prime factors are shared by both numbers, and states the final GCF calculation.
