The GCF of 40 and 45 is 5.

The factors of 40 are: 1, 2, 4, 5, 8, 10, 20, and 40

The factors of 45 are: 1, 3, 5, 9, 15, and 45

The greatest common factor (GCF) is 5.

The best way to check your work is to make the numbers a fraction and reduce by the GCF: 40/45 = 8/9. If the number doesn't reduce any further, then your GCF is correct.
