The greatest common factor will be 8 .
What is common factor? What is a mathematical equation? What is Probability?

A common factor is a whole number which is a factor of two or more numbers. The highest common factor (HCF) is the greatest factor that will divide into two or more numbers. The lowest common multiple (LCM) is the smallest multiple that is common to two or more numbers.
A mathematical expression is made up of terms (constants and variables) separated by mathematical operators .
A mathematical equation is used to equate two expressions.
Equation modelling is the process of writing a mathematical verbal expression in the form of a mathematical expression for correct analysis, observations and results of the given problem.

We have three numbers 24, 56 and 72.
The factors of 24 are : 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8 , 12, 24
The factors of 56 are : 1, 2, 4, 7, 8 , 14, 28, 56
The factors of 72 are : 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8 , 9, 12, 18, 24, 36, 72
Therefore, the greatest common factor will be 8 .
