The greatest common factor of two numbers, one of which is 1, will always be 1.

If the numbers are prime then the only factors are the numbers and 1.
For example - the factors of 5 are 1 and 5 and the factors of 7 are 1 and 7 so they only share the number 1. That is the GCF of 5 and 7.

Answer: No solution

Step-by-step explanation:

x - 3y = 2 → x = 3y + 2

2x - 6y = 6

2(3y + 2) - 6y = 6 substituted x with 3y+2

6y + 4 - 6y = 6 distributed 2 into 3y+2

4 = 6 simplified (6y - 6y = 0)

4 = 6 is a FALSE statement so there is NO SOLUTION
