The Greats Common Factor Is: 33

Explanation:

First, simply list out the factors that will multiply to give us each of the numbers. See below:

1515's Factors Are: 3*535 and 15*1151.

1818's Factors Are: 3*636 and 2*929 and 1*18118.

3030's Factors Are: 3*10310 and 1*30130.

Now we have to ask ourselves, what number out of all three of these is the greatest common factor? All three of these numbers share a common factor and that is 33. They do not share any other factor.

Therefore, the greatest common factor of all these numbers is 33.

Answer: 33.
