Question

How do you find the GCF of `16x, 24x^2`?

Answer 1

`4x`

Explanation:

`16` `color(white)(1*24)` `x` `color(white)(1*24)` `24` `color(white)(1*24)` `x^2`
`1*16` `color(white)(1)` `color(red)(x)*1` `color(white)(..)` `1*24` `color(white)(14)` `color(red)(x)*x`
`2*8` `color(white)(1*24)` `color(white)(x)` `color(white)(00.)` `2*12`
`color(red)(4)*4` `color(white)(1*24)` `color(white)(x)` `color(white)(00.)` `3*8`
`color(white)(1*24)` `color(white)(x)` `color(white)(0000.0.)` `color(red)(4)*6`
