Answer:GCF=17
To find the greatest common factor, or GCF, of the numbers, we first need to list the prime factors of both 85 and 51
52=3*17
85=5*17
17 is the sole common factor that these two numbers have in common, therefore 17 is the GCF.
To simplify the ratio, simply divide both numbers by 17.
85:51 becomes 5:3
The greatest common factor is 17

I can’t even see da the dawn question LOL
∠s + ∠y are complementary
∴ ∠s + ∠y = 90°
∠s = 4(∠y ) -100
s + y = 90
4y - 100 + y = 90
5y = 90 + 100
5y = 190
y = 38
Ans: y = 38°
