I dont know if what I wrote is exactly what you're asking for, but here they are...
24,40 >>> 120 (you divide them by 2,2,2,3,5)
36,72 >>> 72 (2,2,2,3,3)
28,42 >>> 84 (2,2,3,7)
(the result is the product of these numbers)

LCF(24&40) = 8
M(24) = {1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24}
M(40) = {1, 2, 4, 5, 8, 10, 20, 40

LCF(36&72) = 36
M(36) = {1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 9, 12, 18, 36}
M(72) = {1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 9, 12, 18, 36, 72}

LCF(28&42) = 14

I am assuming that you mean a common factor other than 1.
24 and 40
Both are even numbers, so both have a factor of 2. You can't get much smaller than that, so the least common factor is 2.
36 and 72
Again, both are even numbers, so both have a factor of 2. Can't go smaller, so the least common factor is 2.
28 and 42
Again, both are even numbers. Least common factor is 2.
