Given sum= 56+32
Rewrite the given numbers as product of prime factors
56=2×2×2×7
32=2×2×2×2×2
We know that the greatest common factor of two numbers is the greatest factor that divides any two numbers.
⇒greatest common factor=2×2×2=8
∴ 8 is the greatest common factor .
Now, 56+32
=(8×7)+(8×4)
=8(7+4) [distributive property]
=8(11)
=8×11=88
