The least common factor is a term often mistakenly given to either the greatest common factor (GCF) or the least common multiple (LCM). This term is not often used because it does not describe a useful relationship between numbers. Since 1 evenly divides all integers, 1 is technically the least common factor for any set of integers.
The smallest non-one common factor of 42 and 36 is 2.

What is least common factor of 49 and 56?
The least common factor of any set of integers is 1.
What is the least common factor of 456?
You need at least two numbers to find a GCF. If that's 34 and 56, the GCF is 2. If that's 3, 4, 5, 6, the GCF is 1.
What is the least common factor for 7 and 8?
The LCF is 1. The GCF is 1. The LCM is 56.
What is the least common factor of 50 56 and 105?
The least common factor of any set of positive integers is 1.
What is the least common multiple of 28 and 56?
The LCM of 28 and 56 is 56. Since 28 is a factor of 56, 56 is the LCM.
