The term common factors specifically refers to the factors shared by two or more numbers. Since 5 is a single number, you could say that it shares all of its factors with itself.
5 is a Prime number. It is only evenly divisible by itself and one. The factors of 5 are 1 and 5. For them to be common, they need to be compared to another set of factors. Five has two factors. The only way they can be common is if they are compared to another set of factors.
