Hope it cleared your doubt.
First, do the prime factorization.
96 = 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 3
72 = 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 3
The GCF is the product of their shared factors.
They share 2, 2, 2, and 3.
2 x 2 x 2 x 3 = 24.
Their GCF is 24.

Using the property of inverse,

, we can extend the given table
x f(x) f^(-1)(f(x))
-1 1 -1
2 3 2

3 6 3
5 7 5
7 8 7
