How to find the GCF of 24 and 40.
I like to use a factor to find the GCF of 40 and 24.
The GCF is the largest number that divides evenly into two or more numbers.
After finding the prime numbers you just multiply the pairs of prime numbers.

24 = 2 2 2 3
40 =  2 2 2  5

Multiply the pairs of prime numbers.

2 x 2 x 2 = 8
The GCF of 24 and 40  = 8
