Question

What is the greatest common factor of the expression? 2x^2y^3+4x^2y^5

Answer 1

Answer:

$2x^2y^3$

Step-by-step explanation:

The given expression is :

$2x^2y^3+4x^2y^5$

We need to find the greatest common  factor of the expression.

The first term is $2x^2y^3$

The other term is $4x^2y^5$

$2x^2y^3$ is common in both terms. So,

$2x^2y^3(1+2y^2)$

Hence, the greatest common factor of the expression is equal to $2x^2y^3$.
