5x%5E6%2B10x%5E5-15x%5E4%2B10x%5E3
All the coefficients of the polynomial are multiples of 5, with one of them just being 5. All terms have 5 as a factor.
All the terms have x as the only variable, with exponents greater than or equal to 3, with one of the exponents being 3. All the terms have x%5E3 as a factor.
The gcf is 5x%5E3.
5x%5E6%2B10x%5E5-15x%5E4%2B10x%5E3=5x%5E3%28x%5E3%2B2x%5E2-3x%2B2%29
