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 48 and 256 is 16

Since 16 is a factor of 48, it is automatically the GCF of this problem.
