Question

What is the GCF of 100x squared - 250xy+75x

Answer 1

25x

Explanation:

GCF means the greatest common factor.

First, we write the factors of these numbers.

=> 100x^2 = 2 * 2 * 5 * 5 * X * X

=> 250xy = 5 * 5 * 5 * 2 * X * Y

=> 75x = 5 * 5 * 5 * x

=> Next, we need to take the numbers that come in all sets.

=> 5 , 5 , x

Next, we multiply these numbers.

=> 25x

So, the GCF of these numbers are 25x

Answer 2

25x

Explanation:

100x^2 -250xy +75x

Rewriting

25*4*x*x -25*10 *x*y + 25*3*x

As we can see each term contains 25x

The greatest common factor is 25x

25x( 4x -10y+3)
