Question

Circle the common factors of 20w and 40wz. Options are 10, 20w, 10xz, 5z, 2w, z, 9w, or w. Can you please explain how you guys got this too

Answer 1

Answer with Step-by-step explanation:

We are given 2 terms

20w and 40wz

We have to find their common factors.

20w=2×2×5×w

40wz=2×2×2×5×w×z

As we can see from the above factorization that,

10=2×5 is common in both

20w=2×2×5×w is common in both

2w=2×w is common in both

w is common in both

Hence, the common factors of 20w and 40wz are:

10,20w,2w and w

Answer 2

10, 20w, 2w, and we are factors of 20w and 40wz
