The greatest common factor of 16 and 44 is 4.

The first step to finding the GCF is to find all prime factors of both numbers. In this case we have:

44 = 2x2x11

16 = 2x2x2x2

Now you find any factors which are the same in both. We can see that both 44 and 16 have two 2s in their prime factors. To find the GCF, we simply multiply these shared factors together:

2x2=4

So the GCF of 44 and 16 is 4.
The GCF is 4.
