7x2/21x2/35x2 highest common factor (s) in the expression what is the answer

1 answer

The highest common factor in the expression is 7.

To find the highest common factor, we need to simplify each fraction first:

7x^2 / 21x^2 = 1/3
21x^2 / 35x^2 = 3/5

The highest common factor in these simplified fractions is 1, which corresponds to dividing both the numerator and denominator by 7.

However, if we take into account the variables x^2 in the fractions, we can see that the highest common factor in the original expression 7x^2 / 21x^2 / 35x^2 is 7.
