To factor the expression \(5p + 15\), we can look for the greatest common factor (GCF) of the terms.

The GCF of \(5p\) and \(15\) is \(5\).

Now, we can factor out \(5\):

\[ 5p + 15 = 5(p + 3) \]

Thus, the factored form of \(5p + 15\) is:

\[ 5(p + 3) \]

This is a product with a whole number greater than 1, which is \(5\).
