The factors of a number are <em>all of the positive whole numbers that go into it evenly</em>. For example, 2 is a factor of 6 because 6 ÷ 2 = 3, or equivalently, 6 = 2 x 3. Note that this naturally implies that every whole number has 1 and itself as a factor.
The numbers that go evenly into 24 are 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, and 24. For 27, those numbers are 1, 3, 9, and 27.
The <em>common factors </em>between two numbers are numbers that go into <em>both </em>numbers evenly. Looking through the lists for 24 and 27, we see that 1 and 3 are their common factors. The <em>greatest</em> common factor is, of course, the largest of these, so the greatest common factor of 24 and 27 is 3.
I think the answer would be D. Hope this helps!

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
We would set up the hypothesis test. This is a test of a single population mean since we are dealing with mean
For the null hypothesis,
µ = 25235
For the alternative hypothesis,
µ > 25235
This is a right tailed test.
Since the population standard deviation is not given, the distribution is a student's t.
Since n = 100,
Degrees of freedom, df = n - 1 = 100 - 1 = 99
t = (x - µ)/(s/√n)
Where
x = sample mean = 27524
µ = population mean = 25235
s = samples standard deviation = 6000
t = (27524 - 25235)/(6000/√100) = 3.815
We would determine the p value using the t test calculator. It becomes
p = 0.000119
Since alpha, 0.05 > than the p value, 0.000119, then we would reject the null hypothesis. There is sufficient evidence to support the claim that student-loan debt is higher than $25,235 in her area.
