Well, 17 is a prime number so its only factors are 1 and 17.
Since 17 doesn't "go into" 24, the greatest common factor of both is 1.
A factor tree for 63 might be:
63 = 3*21 = 3*3*7
Factor tree for 48:
48 = 8*6 = 2*4*6 = 2*2*2*6 = 2*2*2*2*3

Well, since 17 is a prime and not a factor of 24, the only common factor they could have is 1.
63 = 3*3*7
48 = 2*2*2*2*3

17 is prime. it has no factors. 1 x 17=17
So the GCF is 1
63 3 3 7
48 2 2 2 2 3
