12a cube x squared minis 3ax cube

Answer 1

Answer:

 (iii)   The numerical coefficients of the given monomials are 14 and 28.                The highest common factor of 14 and 28 is 14.                The common literals appearing in the given monomials are p and q.                The smallest power of p and q in the two monomials = 1                The monomial of common literals with smallest powers = pq                ∴The highest common factor = 14pq      (iv)    2x = 2 × x                3x2 = 3 × x × x                4 = 2 × 2                The common factor is 1.      (v)     The numerical coefficients of the given monomials are 6, 24 and 12.                The common literals appearing in the three monomials are a and b.                The smallest power of a in the three monomials = 1                The smallest power of b in the three monomials = 1                The monomial of common literals with smallest power = ab                Hence, the highest common factor = 6ab      (vi)   16x3 = 2 × 2 × 2 2 x × x × x                –4x2 = –1 × 2 × 2 x × x                32x = 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × x                The common factors are 2, 2, x.                And 2 × 2 × x = 4x      (vii)  The numerical coefficients of the given monomials are 10, 20 and 30                The highest common factor of 10, 20 and 30 is 10                There is no common literal appearing in the three monomials.      (viii) 3x2y2 = 3 × x × x × y × y × y                10x3y2 = 2 × 5 × x × x × x × y × y                6x2y2z = 2 × 3 × x × x × y × y × z                The common factors are x, x, y, y                And                x × x × y ×y
