No, it is not. It is factorising - which is more related to dividing.
If you consider the numbers 2,4,6 and 8, the greatest common factor is 2.

A conversion factor is the same as multiplying by a factor of?
When a shape is enlarged the multiplying factor is greater than 1. Example : A factor of 7 means that a length of 1cm on the original shape would be represented by a length of 7cm on the enlarged shape.
The greatest common factor of 6 and 9 is not 5.
It works by multiplying and diving for example: a factor of 10 would be 1,2,5 and the number itself 10
The greatest common factor can also be calculated by identifying the common prime factors and multiplying them together. The prime factors of 35 are 5 and 7. The prime factors of 42 are 2, 3, and 7. The common prime factors are a single 7, so the greatest common factor is 7.
You do not necessarily need the common prime factors when finding the greatest common factor, but with large numbers or numbers for which you cannot easily determine all the factors, using prime factorization to determine the greatest common factor is the easiest method. The greatest common factor can then be determined by multiplying the common prime factors together. For example, when trying to find the greatest common factor of 2144 and 5672, finding all their possible factors to compare could be difficult. So, it is easier to find their prime factors, determine the prime factors they have in common, and then multiply the common prime factors to get the greatest common factor.

The numbers you get from multiplying by a number is called a product.I believe it's like this: factor x factor = productFor example 5x5=25. The two 5's are factors and the 25 is the product.
