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 35 are 1, 5, 7, and 35.

The factors of 42 are 1, 2, 3, 6, 7, 14, 21, and 42.

The common factors are 1 and 7.
