To factor the expression \(8w + 16\) using the greatest common factor (GCF), we first need to identify the GCF of the coefficients.

1. **Identify the coefficients**: The coefficients of the terms are 8 (from \(8w\)) and 16 (the constant term).

2. **Find the GCF of 8 and 16**:
- The factors of 8 are: 1, 2, 4, 8
- The factors of 16 are: 1, 2, 4, 8, 16
- The greatest common factor is 8.

3. **Factor out the GCF from the expression**:
\[
8w + 16 = 8(w + 2)
\]

Thus, the factored form of the expression \(8w + 16\) using the GCF is:
\[
8(w + 2)
\]

To factor the expression \(18m - 24n\) using the greatest common factor (GCF), follow these steps:

1. **Identify the coefficients**: The coefficients of the terms are 18 (from \(18m\)) and 24 (from \(-24n\)).

2. **Find the GCF of 18 and 24**:
- The factors of 18 are: 1, 2, 3, 6, 9, 18
- The factors of 24 are: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24
- The greatest common factor is 6.

3. **Factor out the GCF from the expression**:
\[
18m - 24n = 6(3m - 4n)
\]

Thus, the factored form of the expression \(18m - 24n\) using the GCF is:
\[
6(3m - 4n)
\]
