Factor, in maths terms means "a number that divides into a given number with no remainders". You may be asked to find the "highest common factor" that two number share - this is the "biggest number that divides into both the given numbers, with no remainders".
9 divides both 36 and 45 equally. with no remainders.
363 / 3 = 121
To find the least number that divides 285 and 1249 leaving remainders of 9 and 7 respectively, we need to find the difference between the numbers and the remainders. The difference between 285 and 9 is 276, and the difference between 1249 and 7 is 1242. The least number that divides both 276 and 1242 is their greatest common divisor (GCD), which is 6. Therefore, the least number that divides 285 and 1249 leaving remainders 9 and 7 is 6.
The divisor is the number that divides
