Question

What is the HCF of 8bxy and 16x²

Answer 1

$\underline{\underline{\rm{\mathrm{Greatest\:Common\:Divisor\:of\:}8xy,\:16x^2}}}$

Greatest Common Divisor : The GCD of a, b is the biggest divisor that divides both a and b without a remainder

$\to\sf{\sf{Greatest\:Common\:Divisor\:of\:}x,\:y,\:x^2:\quad x}$

• Greatest Common Divisor of 8 and 16 is 8

$\rm{\mathrm{The\:factors\:common\:to\:}8xy,\:16x^2\mathrm{\:are}}$

$\large\boxed{\underline{\underline{\rm{=8x}}}}$
