Asked by Mari

What is the GCF of these two expressions?
30w^4v^8 and 24y^3w^6v^2

Please help me figure this out

Answered by Steve
30w^4v^8 = 2*3*5 w^4 v^8
24y^3w^6v^2 = 2^3*3 y^3 w^6 v^2

The GCF is the highest powers of the factors that appear in both terms:

2*3 w^4 v^2 = 6w^4v^2

No other combination of factors and higher powers divides both terms
