ANSWER

5x

Step-by-step explanation

We want to find the Greatest Common Factor, GCF, of the expression given:


45x^2\text{ + 10x}

To do this, we have to factor out the terms that are common between the two terms in the expression.

We have:


5x(9x\text{ + 2)}

As we can see, 5x is the greatest factor that is common to the two terms.

Therefore, the Greatest Common Factor is 5x.
