Question

PLZ HELP I WILL MARK BRAINLIEST IF IT IS RIGHT!!!

Answer 1

Answer:

The greatest common factor of $x^{8}$ and $x^{5}$ is 3rd answer

Step-by-step explanation:

The greatest common factor of some numbers is the highest common factor of these numbers

Ex: The highest common factor of 8 and 12 is 4 because the factors of 8 are 1, 2, 4, 8 and the factors of 12 are 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 12, so the common factors of them are 1, 2, 4 and the highest one is 4

The greatest common factor of some terms of the same variable is the smallest exponent

Ex: The greatest common factor of x² and x³ is x²

∵ The terms are $x^{8}$ and $x^{5}$

∵ The smallest exponent is 5

∴ The greatest common factor of $x^{8}$ and $x^{5}$ is $x^{5}$

Answer 2

The terms are x^8 and x^5

The smallest exponent is 5

The greatest common factor of x^8 and x^5 is x^5
