Apply the distributive property to factor out the greatest common factor.
55+35

Step-by-step explanation:

We have,

55 + 35

To find, the distributive property to factor out the greatest common factor,

55 + 35 = ?

We know that,

The distributive property of multiplycation,

The factors of 55 = 1, 5, 11 and 55 and

The factors of 35 = 1, 5, 7 and 35

The greatest common factor of 55 and 35 = 5

Using distributive property of multiplycation,

The greatest common factor = 5

Hence, the greatest common factor of 55 and 35 is .
