Answer:

12
x^(4)y
z^(7)√3x

Explanation:

2√108
x^(9)
z^(14)

so you will need two of something to take one out from under the squareroot

we can rewrite
z^(14) = z^(7) *z^(7) so we can take a
z^(7) out

we can rewrite y² as y*y so we can take a y out

we can rewrite
x^(9) as
x^(4) *x^(4) *x so we can take a
x^(4)out

for 108 think what is the smallest prime number that divides 108 and is 2

108= 2*54

same algorithm, smallest prime number that divides 54 is 2 so

108=2*2*27

same algorithm, smallest prime number that divides 27 is 3 so

108=2*2*3*9

we know 9 is 3*3 so

108=2*2*3*3*3 we can take out one 2 and one 3

put them all toghether now

2*2*3*
x^(4)*y*
z^(7)√3x = 12
x^(4)y
z^(7)√3x
