In a set of numbers if one of the numbers is 1 then GCF is 1.

Reason:

GCF of a set of numbers can never be greater than the smallest number of the set. So in this case GCF can't be greater than 1.

Since 1 is a factor of every number then it is the factor shared by every number.

So 1 is always in the list of common factors.

But here one of the numbers is 1 then GCF is 1 because 1 is the only common factor.
