The GCF is 6x3.
It is 8.70 - there is no work to show!
You would first factor out anything that is common between the 3 parts. 2x2 is the greatest common factor. To pull out the 2x2, you divide each term by 2x2 like so:12x4/2x2=6x210x3/2x2=5x-12x2/2x2=-6We now know that 12x4+10x3-12x2= 2x2(6x2+5x-6)The next step involves using the "slip and slide" method for the trinomial inside the parentheses:6x2+5x-6x2+5x-36(x+9)(x-4)(x+9/6)(x-4/6)(x+3/2)(x-2/3)(2x+3)(3x-2)Remembering that the result for the slip and slide method only accounts for 6x2+5x-6 we must multiply (2x+3)(3x-2) by 2x2.Your final answer is 2x2(2x+3)(3x-2).
justifying steps means to show that the work you have done is accurate and correct so basically checking your work.

12x4 - 42x6 = 6x4 (2 - 7x2)
48
24x6 + 12x4 + 15x2 factor the greatest common factor, 3x2 = 3x2(8x4 + 4x2 + 5)

12 x 4 = 48

The GCF is 4x4
48x1, 24x2, 12x4, 6x8
The GCF is 4x4
The GCF is 6x3.
It is probably 2.
