GCF = Greatest Common Factor. In other words, let's say the number is 10 and, oh, 100. So, what is the number that both 10 and 100 can be divided by? 1,2,5,and 10. But since 10 is the greatest, the GCF is 10. We can do this ladder form:

(100,10)

2(50, 5)

5(10,1)

2x5 is 10! if there is an extra, like if it is 9,2, but you cant divide further, IGNORE it.
