A factor is a divisor - a number that will evenly divide into another number. The greatest common factor of two or more numbers is the largest factor that both numbers have in common.

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 49 are 1, 7, and 49.

The factors of 64 are 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, and 64.

The factors of 72 are 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 9, 12, 18, 24, 36, and 72.

The factors of 84 are 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 7, 12, 14, 21, 28, 42, and 84.

The only common factor is 1. Therefore, the greatest common factor is 1.

dude, you could've just said 1
