Question

What is the GCF of 32ab 3 and 40a 2?

Answer 1

In this question , we have to find the GCF of

`32ab^3 \ and \ 40a^2`

First we write each of them in the faactored form, that is

`32ab^3 = 2*2*2*2*2*a*b*b*b 40a^2 = 2*2*2*5*a*a`

Now we check for all the common factors, which are

`= 2*2*2 *a  = 8a`

So the required GCF is 8a .
