To simplify 16/40 using the greatest common factor (GCF), we need to find the largest number that divides evenly into both 16 and 40.
The prime factorization of 16 is 2*2*2*2, and the prime factorization of 40 is 2*2*2*5.
The common factors are 2*2*2=8.
Dividing 16 and 40 by 8 gives us 2/5.
So, 16/40 simplifies to 2/5.
