What's the Greatest Common Factor (GCF) of 35, 56 and 63?

Answer

GCF of 35, 56 and 63 is
7

Common factors: 1, 7

7 divides all three: 35 ÷ 7 = 5, 56 ÷ 7 = 8, 63 ÷ 7 = 9 — and 5, 8 and 9 have no factor but 1 common to all of them, so no larger number divides all three.

35 = 5 × 7

56 = 23 × 7

63 = 32 × 7
