Question

Find the greatest common factor of these two expressions.
28xy8v7 and 14x6v3

Answer 1

9514 1404 393

Answer:

14xv^3

Explanation:

Coefficients are 28 and 14, which have a GCF of 14.

x exponents are 1 and 6, so the GCF is x^1 = x

y exponents are 8 and 0, so the GCF is y^0 = 1

v exponents are 7 and 3, so the GCF is v^3

The GCF of the two terms is the product of the factors just found:

14xv^3
