Since 3a is a factor of 6ab, it is automatically the GCF.
6a2 - 8ab + 2aas you can see a is common to all terms. And 2 is a factor of 6,8, and 2. So 2a is a factor of all three terms:2a(3a-4b+1)
three consecutives numbers: a = smallest a+2 a+4 14 less = -14 than twice the smallest = 2a so... a+a+2+a+4=-14+2a 3a+6=-14+2a 3a-2a=-14-6 a=-20 answer: smallest = -20 greatest = -16
