First we need to find the prime factorization of each expression: 3*3: 3*3 6*y: 3*2*y 9*2: 3*3*2 12*2y*2: 3*2*2*2*y Now look at each line and see what "terms" (note that each number counts as one "term") all four lines have in common. The only "term" in common is one 3, thus the greatest common factor is 3. Note: I assumed "12x2y2" meant 12*2*2*y, if it's 12*2*y^2, the prime factorization becomes: 3*2^2*y*y. The greatest common factor does not change, however. * is the multiplication symbol (3*3 means 3+3+3). ^ is the exponential function (i.e. the small number that is written on the top half of a standard line, 4^2 means 4*4).

Factor x4 - 3x3 - 7x2 plus 27x -18?
First, it is important to regroup, so I am going to rearrange this equation: (x4 - 7x2 - 18 - 3x3 + 27x I can now factor the first three terms and the last two terms: (x4 - 7x2 - 18) becomes (x2 - 9)(x2 + 2) -3x3 + 27x becomes -3x(x2 - 9); so the new equation looks like: (x2 - 9)(x2 + 2) - 3x(x2 - 9) From here, factor out what is common, in this case- x2- 9. Therefore, you will have (x2 - 9)(x2 + 2 - 3x), which can be rearranged to (x2 -9)(x2 - 3x + 2). Further factoring reveals (x + 3)(x - 3)(x - 1)(x - 2) as the final answer.

What is the least common multiple of 4 6 and 24?
Factor each one and multiply the prime factors the times it was used the most in any of the numbers. 6=2x3 9=3x3 25=5x5 2x3x3x5x5=450

9 is a multiple of 3. (3x3=9)
What is the greatest common divisor between 9 and 11?
To find the LCM of two numbers you first express them as their prime factors. In this case we have: 9 = 3x3 11 = 11 The next step would be to identify any common factors. In this case there are none, so simply take all the factors (3, 3 and 11) and multiply them together: 3x3x11 = 99 Thus the LCM of 9 and 11 is 99.
What is the factor tree for 9 with work shown?

What is the least common multiple and greatest common factor of 8 and 12?
8=2^312=3x2^2To find the LCM take 2^3x3=24To find the gcf take 2^2=4I factored them into primes and took the largest factors to find the LCM and the smalles to find the gcf.Dr. Chuckakamathdoc
