Question 315230
<font face="Garamond" size="+2">


The prime factorization of *[tex \LARGE 6x] is *[tex \LARGE \ \ 2\ \cdot\ 3\ \cdot\ x]


The prime factorization of *[tex \LARGE 15x^3] is *[tex \LARGE \ \ 3\ \cdot\ 5\ \cdot\ x\ \cdot\ x\ \cdot\ x]


The GCF needs


One *[tex \LARGE \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ 3] because each of the prime factorizations has a 3


One *[tex \LARGE \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ x] each of the prime factorizations has an *[tex \LARGE x]


So:


*[tex \LARGE \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ 3x]


Is the largest factor that will evenly divide both original terms.
