The GCF, or greatest common factor, is the largest number that will divide evenly with no remainder into all the members of a given set of numbers. The LCM, or least common multiple, is the smallest number that all the members of a given set of numbers will divide into evenly with no remainder.

Factors go into numbers, numbers go into multiples.
