To find the greatest common factor (GCF) of the expression \( 15q + 6 \), we can first identify the coefficients and constants in the terms.
The coefficients are:
- \( 15 \) from \( 15q \)
- \( 6 \) from the constant term
Next, we need to find the GCF of these two numbers: \( 15 \) and \( 6 \).
1. The factors of \( 15 \) are \( 1, 3, 5, 15 \).
2. The factors of \( 6 \) are \( 1, 2, 3, 6 \).
The common factors of \( 15 \) and \( 6 \) are \( 1 \) and \( 3 \). The largest of these common factors is \( 3 \).
Thus, the GCF of \( 15q + 6 \) is \( 3 \).
Therefore, the answer is \( \boxed{3} \).
