24 = 2*12= 2*4*3= 2*2*2*3
40 = 5*8 = 5*2*2*2

Greatest common factor is what the number have in common as factors.
We see that both numbers have (2*2*2) = 8
So, greatest common factor is 8.

Solve for indicated variable. V= 1/3πr^2h solve for r

sergey [27]

$V=\frac{1}{3}\pi r^2h\\\\\frac{1}{3}\pi r^2h=V\ \ \ \ |multiply\ both\ sides\ by\ 3\\\\\pi r^2h=3V\ \ \ \ |divide\ both\ sides\ by\ \pi h\\\\r^2=\frac{3V}{\pi h}\Rightarrow\boxed{r=\sqrt{\frac{3V}{\pi h}}}$
