The gcf of 3 and 8 is 1.

Steps to find GCF

1. Find the prime factorization of 3
   3 = 3
2. Find the prime factorization of 8
   8 = 2 × 2 × 2
3. To find the gcf, multiply all the prime factors common to both numbers:
   
   Therefore, GCF = 1

The greatest common factor (gcf) is also known as greatest common divisor (gcd) or highest common factor (hcf).
