3a
6b
The GCF is 6ab
(11a-8b)(11a+8b)
Since 3a is a factor of 6ab, it is automatically the GCF.
b(6a-8) if you are factoring
3a
(11a + 8b)(11a - 8b)
6b
The GCF is 6ab
(11a-8b)(11a+8b)
8b^2 -9b +1 8b^2 -8b -b +1 8b(b-1) - 1(b-1) (8b-1)(b-1)
The greatest common factor of 4ab and 6ab is 2ab. You simply take the greatest common factor from both factors. The greatest common factor of 4 and 6 is 2. The letters can be factored out because they appear in both factors
6ab
Since 3a is a factor of 6ab, it is automatically the GCF.
2(a + 4b)
The GCF is 1.
