Answer:

The GCF is 9

Explanation:

In the given polynomial
18x^6+ 81x^5 - 63x^2 +45 lets represent each term as its factors


18x^6 =
2 * 3 * 3 * x * x * x * x * x * x


81x^5 =
3 * 3 * 3 * 3 * x * x * x * x * x


63x^2 =
3 * 3 * 7 * x * x

45 =
3 * 3 * 5

The greatest common factors from each term are 3 , 3

Thus the GCF =
3 * 3 = 9
