Answer: A (1)

Explanation:

The way to find a common factor is by dividing the given numbers by the largest possible multiple that still gives you a whole number

A

49/1=49

62/1=62

80/1=80

This is an option

B

49/2=24.5

62/2=31

80/2=40

This is not an option, 24.5 is not a whole number

C

40/3=16.333(repeating)

This is not an option, you are not given a whole number

D

49/4=12.25

This is also not an option, 12.25 is not a whole number

Answer

Our only possible answer is A-1
