Get the prime factors of each number, group them all, and multiple all common, grouped prime factors together to get the highest common factor.
9 = 3 * 3
12 = 2 * 2 * 3
15 = 3 * 5
In this case, they all share one group of 3. So, the HCF is 3.
HCF:9=3×3
12=2×2×3
15=3×5
HCF=[9,12,15]=3

lcm(9, 12) = 36; hcf(9, 12) = 3.
9= 3x3 12= 2x2x2x2x3 HCF = 3
The GCF is 3.
HCF is the highest common factor of two or more numbers. HCF of 9 and 15 is 3.
HCF(9, 12) = 3

HCF of 9 and 15 is 3
3 is the HCF
The GCF is 3.
The GCF is 3.
