GCF(Greatest Common Factor) and Factors

The GCF Is the greatest factor shared by the numbers in your data set.

EXAMPLE
So lets say the numbers you have are 15 and 30.
The factors of 15 and 30 are......
15:1,3,5,15
30: 1,2,3,10,15,30
so the GCF would be 15 because that's the greatest number that goes into 15 and 30.

Great job! I love your links! The only thing I would like to see is more teaching in your explanations - How do you find all of the factors of a number? - for example.
