The answer:

569

Explanation:

The inside number's leftmost digit is the highest factor of the top number. Middle digit is the highest factor of bottom left number. Right digit is highest factor of bottom right number.

So 15 => 5, 12 => 6, 18 => 9

  • $\begingroup$ I would say that it's the highest "proper divisor", it's terminology for a factor that isn't the number itself $\endgroup$
