Because 2 can divide evenly into 44 with no remainder. Every even number has two as a factor.
44 is a composite number; it has factors other than 1 and itself. It is not a prime number. The 6 factors of 44 are 1, 2, 4, 11, 22, and 44. Of these, 2 and 11 are prime.
Since 23 is a prime number, and is not a factor of 44, the greatest common factor (GCF) of 23 and 44 is 1.
Try to divide - in this case, 44 / 2. If you get a whole number, it's a factor; otherwise it isn't.

No; there is no common factor other than 1. (37 is a prime number and not a factor of 44.)
44 = 2*2*11/ \2 22/ \2 11
Numbers which are prime factor of 44 are 2 and 11.
The highest common factor of 16 and 44 is 4
The purpose of a factor tree is to notate the process of finding the prime factorization. If a number is already prime, a factor tree is not necessary.
