Answer:

Greatest Common Factor is 1

Least Common Multiple is 24

Explanation:

Greatest common factor is the biggest whole number that can be multiplied into the numbers. In this case 1x8=8 and 1x3=3.

Least common multiple is the smallest number each number can multiply into. In this case 3x8=24 and 8x3=24
