Well, isn't that just a happy little question! The greatest common factor of 72 is 36. You see, the greatest common factor is the largest number that can evenly divide into all the numbers you're looking at, and 36 fits that bill perfectly for 72. Just imagine those numbers getting along so well, creating a beautiful harmony together.

Oh, dude, the greatest common factor of 72 is like the biggest number that can divide evenly into 72 without leaving a remainder. So, for 72, the greatest common factor is 72 itself. It's like the VIP of factors, the one that can party with 72 without causing any drama.

Well, honey, the greatest common factor of 72 is 72 itself. It's the largest number that can divide into 72 without leaving a remainder. So, grab a calculator or use that brain of yours and you'll see that 72 is the big boss in this situation.

There cannot be a greatest common factor of just one number. To be common there need to be at least two numbers. If you find all the factors of two or more numbers, and you find some factors are the same ("common"), then the largest of those common factors is the Greatest Common Factor.
You need at least two numbers to find a GCF. If that's 7 and 2, the GCF is 1.

It is not possible to give a sensible answer to this question. The greatest common factor (GCF) refers to a factor that is COMMON to two or more numbers. You have only one number in the question!
