Answer: The greatest common factor of two or more number is called​ G.C.F or H.C.F (Highest common factor)

Step-by-step explanation:

The greatest common factor is the highest number which divides both the numbers or in other words it is the divisor of the two or more number who share it.

Let us discuss the following terms:

Factors - A factor is the number who divides the original number or numbers evenly without leaving any remainder. Foe example- 4 is the factor of 32 which means 4 can divide 32 in four equal parts.

Common Factor- when two numbers shares a common divisor then the divisor is the  common factor of the two number. For example - 2 can divide 4 and 8 evenly. Therefore 2 is the common factor of 4 and 8

GCF-  It is the greatest common factor of the two or more numbers i.e. it is the highest factors among all the factors .For example-

let \,\, us\,\,find\,\, \,\,the\,\,G.C.F\,\,or H.C.F of 24,\,30\, and\,36.\\\\24=2\times2\times 2\times 2\times 3\\30=2\times3\times5\\36=2\times2\times3\times3\\\therefore The \,\,H.C.F \,\, is =2\times3=6
