What is the Greatest Common Factor of 12x and 3xsquared

We have to look for the greatest monomial that "fits" inside both and

As for the numeric part, the greatest common divisor of 12 and 3 is 3 itself, because 3 divides 12.

As for the literal part, fits inside both and , but we can't choose because it wouldn't fit inside .

So, the greatest common factor is . In fact, if we factor it out we get

, and 4 and don't have any common factor. This proves that we actually factored out the greatest common factor.

if i put something wrong your not gonna like it so rather not say nothing.

you would need to also lose 1 point for each of the other outcomes for it to be fair.
