All numbers have factors. Some numbers have some of the same factors as other numbers. These are known as common factors. One way to find them is to list all the factors of a set of numbers. Example 30 and 42

1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 10, 15, 30

1, 2, 3, 6, 7, 14, 21, 42

1, 2, 3 and 6 appear on both lists. They are the common factors of 30 and 42.
