    What's the Greatest Common Factor (GCF) of 45, 120 and 525?

    Answer

    GCF of 45, 120 and 525 is
    15

    Common factors: 1, 3, 5, 15

    15 divides all three: 45 ÷ 15 = 3, 120 ÷ 15 = 8, 525 ÷ 15 = 35 — and 3, 8 and 35 have no factor but 1 common to all of them, so no larger number divides all three.

    45 = 32 × 5

    120 = 23 × 3 × 5

    525 = 3 × 52 × 7

    — = power 0: the prime is not a factor of this number, so it cannot be in the GCF.

    GCF = 3 × 5 = 15

    FAQ

    What's the Greatest Common Factor (GCF) of 45, 120 and 525?

    GCF of 45, 120 and 525 is 15

    What prime factors do 45, 120 and 525 share?

    All three factorizations contain 3 × 5, and multiplying those shared primes gives 15 — exactly the greatest common factor.

    Can you get the GCF of 45, 120 and 525 two numbers at a time?

    Yes. The GCF of 45 and 120 is 15, and the GCF of 15 and 525 is 15 — 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 45 : 120 : 525?

    Divide every term by the GCF 15: 45 ÷ 15 = 3, 120 ÷ 15 = 8 and 525 ÷ 15 = 35. So 45 : 120 : 525 in lowest terms is 3 : 8 : 35, and no whole number other than 1 divides all three of those.
