They both start out with finding the prime factorizations. Then, it's just a matter of which factors you select.

Example: 30 and 42

Factor them.

2 x 3 x 5 = 30

2 x 3 x 7 = 42

Select the common factors.

2 x 3 = 6, the GCF

Select the highest amount of each factor.

2 x 3 x 5 x 7 = 210, the LCM

Check it.

30 x 42 = 1260

210 x 6 = 1260

It checks.

The greatest common factor, or GCF, is the largest positive integer that will divide evenly with no remainder into all the members of a given set of numbers. The least common multiple, or LCM, is the smallest positive integer that all the members of a given set of numbers will divide into evenly with no remainder.

They're alike as they are both missing from being shown, they are both invisible.

They are different as they find the gcf differently.
