Answer:

Explanation:

Let's first look at the coefficients: 10, -15, 20

The GCF of these numbers is 5 (all numbers are divisible by 5, nothing larger).

Next, let's look at the
x terms:
x^(3), x^(4), x^(5)

The GCF of these terms is
x^(3) (find the lowest exponent)

Finally, let's look at the
y terms:
y^(5), y^(8), y^(6)

The GCF of these terms is
y^(5) (find the lowest exponent)

This gives us a GCF of
5x^(3)y^(5)
