Question 237713: Find the GCF of the given monomial:
3X^2, 9X^2
My teacher didn't explain this lesson to us but gave us homework. I want to make sure I'm doing this right. I believe I need to factor each one out first:
3 times X times X
3 times 3 times X times X
This means that the common factors would be 3, X and X thus making the answer 3X^2. Is this correct? Thank you.
