A factor.
A factor of the number.
A factor is a number that divides another number without leaving a remainder. In the equation 7x7=49, the number 7 is a factor because it divides evenly into 49, resulting in a whole number quotient of 7. Therefore, 7 is a factor of 49 in this case.
A number that divides into a whole number evenly is called a "factor" of that number.
The lowest common factor (the smallest positive whole number which divides into all the numbers without any remainder) of 3, 4, 16 is 1, as it is for any set of numbers. The highest common factor (the largest positive whole number which divides into all the numbers without any remainder) is also 1. The lowest common multiple ((the smallest positive whole number into which divide all the numbers without any remainder, ie the smallest positive whole number which is a multiple of all the numbers) is 48.
