The greatest common factor is a function of two numbers-- it is the greatest factor that the numbers have in common. The concept does not apply to a single number. Now you can use the same number twice and ask what is the greatest common factor of 240 and 240 and the answer would be 240.
Only if they're the same number.
There cannot be a greatest common factor of just one number. To be common there need to be at least two numbers. If you find all the factors of two or more numbers, and you find some factors are the same ("common"), then the largest of those common factors is the Greatest Common Factor.
OK you list all the factors of each number and what ever number is the greatest and the same in both numbers that is the Greatest Common Factor Glad I could help!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
"Common" means "same for both". There's no such thing as a "common" factor of only one number. There has to be two or more of them, then a "common" factor is a number that's a factor of all of them.
There cannot be a greatest common factor (GCF) of just one number. To be common there need to be at least two numbers. If you find all the factors of two or more numbers, and you find some factors are the same ("common"), then the largest of those common factors is the Greatest Common Factor.
There's no such thing as the greatest common factor of "a number". "Common" means "same for both". There can't possibly be anything 'common' until you have at least two separate numbers.
A single number doesn't have a 'greatest common factor'.A single number doesn't have any 'common' factors."Common" means "the same for both of them".A "common factor" means it's a factor of two different numbers.
