2^5 · 5· 11 and 2^3· 5^2 · 7 have the following factors in common: 2, 5\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "The '2' occurs 3 times in both and the 5 occurs exactly once. So 2^3*5 = 8*5 = 40 is the GCF\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "They left the GCF factored, so the answer is D) 2^3 ·5
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
