Greater than what?

As every number has a factor of 1, there is always a common factor of 1 between any two numbers; if there are no other common factors then the greatest common factor of those numbers is 1.

The factors of 154 and 42 are:

154: 1, 2, 7, 11, 14, 22, 77, 154

42: 1, 2, 3, 6, 7, 14, 21, 42

Their common factors are: 1, 2, 7, 14

Therefore their greatest common factor is 14.
