Common Factors

Factor is a number which exactly divides another number without leaving any remainder. When we find the factors of 2, 3 or more numbers we will see that some factors are same and those same factors are called common factors.

For Example:

Find the common factors of 125 and 150

The factors of 125 are 1, 5, 25, 125

The factors of 150 are 1, 5, 10, 15, 25, 50, 150

The common factors of 125 and 150 are:

1, 5 & 25
