What is the greatest common factor of 44 12 and 28?

The greatest common factor of these three numbers is 4.

In order to find this, we start with factors of the smallest number (12). The factors are listed below.

12, 6, 4, 3, 2, 1

Now we start with the biggest and work our way down until we find something that goes into all 3.

12 does not go in evenly to either 44 or 28, so we can't use that.

6 does not go in evenly to either 44 or 28, so we can't use that.

4 goes in evenly to both as seen below:

44/4 = 11

28/4 = 7

Therefore, 4 is the greatest common factor.
