Greatest common factor--

The gcf i.e. greatest common factor of two numbers is the product of the greatest factors which is common to both the number

a)

$4p^5q^5\ and\ 8p^3q^2$

The greatest factor which is common to both the monomials is:

4p^3q^2

b)

$24pq^6\ and\ 16p^3q^5$

Now, we observe that both the monomials has greatest common factor as:

8pq^5

c)

$8p^3q^6\ and\ 4p^2q^5$

The greatest factor which is common to both the monomials is:

4p^2q^5

d)

$16p^3q^2\ and\ 24p^2q$

The greatest factor which is common to both the number is:

8p^2q

e)

$12p^3q\ and\ 4p^2q^5$

The greatest factor which is common to both the number is:

4p^2q
