The factors of 16 are:1,2,4,8,16
The factors of 80 are:1,2,4,5,8,10,16,20,40,80
The greatest factor they have in common is 8.

The easiest way is to ask yourself, "Does 16 go evenly into 80?" Then you would get out your calculator or do the long division on your paper and you would answer yourself with, "Why, yes! Yes it does!" If 16 goes into 80 and you are looking for the greatest COMMON factor of the two numbers, then 16 has to be the greatest because 16 is the greatest number that will go evenly into 16. Hehe, simple.

Dude! What would you people do without the Internet for help!?
A better question would have been.. "How can I find the greatest common factor of 16 & 80?"
Do like everyone else and do your own homework! Sheesh! :oP
