a multiple is the number you can make by multiplying a number with another number.

ex: multiple of 10= 10,20,30,40,50,60 ...

a factor is a number which, when multiplied by another number, produces a given number.

ex: 5 is a factor of 20, so is 4

a common factor is the largest number given in the problem

ex: the GCF of 30 and 42 is 6
