What's the Greatest Common Factor (GCF) of 10, 15 and 25?

Answer

GCF of 10, 15 and 25 is

(Five)

5 is the largest positive integer that divides 10, 15 and 25 without a remainder — every other common divisor of the three divides it too.

Finding the GCF of 10, 15 and 25 by Prime Factorization

Split all three numbers into prime factors, then keep every prime that appears in all three of them, each taken as many times as it appears in the poorest factorization. Multiplying what is left gives the greatest common factor:

All Prime Factors of 10: 2 × 5 (exponent form: 2 × 5)

All Prime Factors of 15: 3 × 5 (exponent form: 3 × 5)

All Prime Factors of 25: 5 × 5 (exponent form: 5²)

Prime factor	10	15	25	Lowest power
2	2	—	—	—
3	—	3	—	—
5	5	5	5²	5

GCF = 5 = 5

Checking the GCF of 10, 15 and 25 Two Numbers at a Time

The greatest common factor is associative, so three numbers can be handled as two pairs — and this is what makes the Euclidean algorithm usable here: run it on the first pair, then run it again on that result and the third number.

GCF(a, b, c) = GCF(GCF(a, b), c)

GCF(10, 15) = 5

GCF(5, 25) = 5

GCF(10, 15, 25) = 5

The answer checks out by division — all three quotients come out whole:

10 ÷ 5 = 2

15 ÷ 5 = 3

25 ÷ 5 = 5

2, 3 and 5 have no common factor left — that is what makes 5 the greatest one.

FAQ

What's the Greatest Common Factor (GCF) of 10, 15 and 25?

GCF of 10, 15 and 25 is 5

What prime factors do 10, 15 and 25 share?

All three factorizations contain 5, and multiplying those shared primes gives 5 — exactly the greatest common factor.

Can you get the GCF of 10, 15 and 25 two numbers at a time?

Yes, and it is the check this page prints. The GCF of 10 and 15 is 5, and the GCF of 5 and 25 is 5 — the same answer, because the greatest common factor is associative and does not depend on the order of the three numbers.

How does the GCF simplify the ratio 10 : 15 : 25?

Divide every term by the GCF 5: 10 ÷ 5 = 2, 15 ÷ 5 = 3 and 25 ÷ 5 = 5. So 10 : 15 : 25 in lowest terms is 2 : 3 : 5, and no whole number other than 1 divides all three of those.
