Suppose that for any pair of numbers x and y,

gcf(x, y) = g

then x = g*p and y = g*q for some integers p and q.

Therefore

x + y = g*p + g*q = g*(p+q).

Tasha believes that she can rewrite the difference 120-36 as a product of the greatest common factor of the two numbers and another diffetence is she correct explain your answer?

Tasha is correct. The simple subtraction problem 120 - 36 can be rewritten as the pointlessly obtuse (3 x 40) - (3 x 12) = 3 x 28 = 84. Left unexplained is why on earth she would want to do that.
