Question

Three monomials are shown below.

25a²bx 15b²cx³ 30ab³cx²
What is the greatest common factor (GCF) of all three monomials?

Answer 1

gcf is 5x

Explanation:

of the coefficients - 25, 15 and 30 - the greatest common factor is 5

each of the three terms - 25a²bx, 15b²cx³, and 30ab³cx² - has only one shared variable, which is 'x'

therefore, the gcf is 5x
