Factors of 26 are: 1, 2, 13, 26Factors of 44 are: 1, 2, 4, 11, 22, 44The greatest common factor (GCF) is 2. The best way to check your answer is to set up the two numbers as a fraction and reduce by the GCF. 26/44 = 13/22. If the number doesn't reduce further, then your GCF is correct.
The greatest common factor is used to reduce fractions.
Divide the numerator and the denominator by their greatest common factor. In this case, that is 20.
To reduce any fraction, divide numerator and denominator (top and bottom numbers) by their greatest common factor. The greatest common factor of 6 and 48 is 6 . When 6/48 is reduced to simplest form, it's 1/8 .
You divide both the numerator and denominator by the greatest common factor. For example, 27/30 Both have a greatest common factor of 3, so divide 27 by 3 and 30 by 3 and you get the fraction in simplest form as 9/10.
The GCF is 4. The equivalent fraction is 1/2.
To reduce a factor to lowest terms, look for a common factor (between the numerator and the denominator), and divide both parts by this common factor. Unless you specifically looked for the GREATEST common factor, you must continue looking for common factors, until you end up with a fraction that has no common factors.

The GCF is 10. The reduced fraction is 2/3.

Find the greatest common factor of both the top and bottom number. So say its 2/4...2 is the largest number that can go into both numbers. You then divide both fraction number by the greatest common factor. So again if you had 2/4 it would reduce to 1/2
