A factor is a divisor - a number that will evenly divide into another number.

One way to determine the common factors (and greatest common factor) is to find all the factors of the numbers and compare them.

The factors of 27 are 1, 3, 9, and 27.

The factors of 38 are 1, 2, 19, and 38.

The only common factor is 1 .
