There is neither a greatest common factor nor common factors of a single number, such as 52, because there cannot be any form of common factor without two or more numbers to compare. Common factors are factors that the numbers being compared have in common. The greatest common factor is the largest factor that all the numbers being compared have in common. Thus, since there are not two or more numbers to compare, there are neither common factors nor a greatest common factor.
The factors of 52 are 1, 2, 4, 13, 26, and 52.
The prime factors of 52 are 2, 2, and 13.
Examples:
The common factors of 8 and 52 are 1, 2, and 4.
The common factors of 39 and 52 are 1 and 13.
The common factors of 52 and 78 are 1, 2, 13, and 26.

The factors of 112 are 1, 2, 4, 7, 8, 14, 16, 28, 56, 112. For them to be common, they need to be compared to another set of factors. You need at least two numbers to find a GCF.
7
A factor is a number that divides into another number. Factors of 19 are 1 and 19. Factors of 49 are 1, 7, and 49. Therefore, 1 is the greatest common factor.
To get a fraction in its simplest form you need to identify any common factors between the numerator and denominator. In this case, a common factor of 49 and 112 is 7. We can divide top and bottom of 49/112 by 7 to give 7/16. There are no more common factors, so 7/16 is the fraction in its simplest form.
The GCF is 1.
The greatest common factor (GCF) is often also called the greatest common divisor (GCD) or highest common factor (HCF). Keep in mind that these different terms all refer to the same thing: the largest integer which evenly divides two or more numbers.The greatest common factor of 14, 49, 56, and 84 is 7
