Identifying the Numerical GCF in Logistics Modeling

A logistics analyst is solving the equation $4x^2 = 16x + 84 to determine the optimal number of delivery routes for a regional shipping hub. After converting the equation to standard form ($4x^2 - 16x - 84 = 0), the analyst must identify the numerical Greatest Common Factor (GCF) shared by all three terms to simplify the expression. What is the numerical value of this GCF?
