Question

Find the GCF of the monomials: 72x³y² and 210x²y⁵

Answer 1

GCF = 6*x²*y²

Explanation:

GCF - greatest common factor

We have to find greatest factor that are present in both expressions.

72x³y² and 210x²y⁵

72x²xy² and 210x²y²y³

72 = 8*9 = 4*2*3*3 = 6*12

210 = 3*7*10 = 3*7*2*5= 6*35

6*12*x²xy² and 6*35*x²y²y³

GCF = 6*x²*y²

Answer 2

6x^2y^2

Explanation:

6x^2y^2(12x)(35y^3)
