Question

What is the gcf for 18x^3 y^2, 9xyz

Answer 1

Given,

`18x^3y^2,9xyz`

To find GCF we will factor constant and variable terms individually,

First factorize 18:

`18=1,2,3,6,9,18`

Factors of 9:

`9=1*3*9`

Now,

`\begin{gathered} 18=1,2,3,6,9,18 \\ 9=1,3,9 \end{gathered}`

Now GCF of 18,9 is 9.

GCF of

`x^3=x,x,x`

GCF of
