Well, darling, the greatest common factor (GCF) of 14xy and 7x squared is 7x. Why? Because it's the largest number that can divide both terms without leaving a remainder. So, there you have it, 7x is the GCF, case closed.
7x
The GCF is 7x^7.
7x+5-14 = 28 7x = 28+14-5 7x = 37 x = 37/7 = 5.'285714' recurring
7x + 8 = 36 - 8 = - 8 -------------- 7x = 28 7x/7 = 28/7 x = 4
28=8x+12-7x 28=8x-7x+12 28=x+12 28-12=x+12-12 16=x
23 = 7x + 7x - 5 = 14x - 5 14x = 23 + 5 = 28 x = 28/14 = 2
Since 7x is a factor of 14xy, it is automatically the GCF.
7x + 8 = 36 Therefore, 7x = 28 x = 28/7 x = 4
The GCF is 28.
12x - 28 = 7x - 63Subtract 7x from each side:5x - 28 = -63Add 28 to each side:5x = -35Divide each side by 5:x = -7
The GCF is 7.
