To factor \( 18m - 24n \) using the greatest common factor (GCF), we first need to determine the GCF of the coefficients 18 and 24.

1. The factors of 18 are: \( 1, 2, 3, 6, 9, 18 \)
2. The factors of 24 are: \( 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24 \)

The largest common factor is 6.

Now, we can factor 6 out of \( 18m \) and \( -24n \):

\[
18m - 24n = 6(3m) - 6(4n) = 6(3m - 4n)
\]

Thus, the factored form of \( 18m - 24n \) using the GCF is:

\[
\boxed{6(3m - 4n)}
\]
