Q. Find the greatest common factor.\newline2j3,6j22j^3, 6j^2\newlineWrite your answer as a constant times a product of single variables raised to exponents.\newline__\_\_
  1. Factorization of 2j32j^3: First find the complete factorization of 2j32j^3.
    2=22 = 2
    j3=j×j×jj^3 = j \times j \times j
    2j3=2×j×j×j2j^3 = 2 \times j \times j \times j
  2. Factorization of 6j26j^2: Now, find the complete factorization of 6j26j^2.\newline6=2×36 = 2 \times 3\newlinej2=j×jj^2 = j \times j\newline6j2=2×3×j×j6j^2 = 2 \times 3 \times j \times j
  3. Find Greatest Common Factor: We found:\newline2j3=2×j×j×j2j^3 = 2 \times j \times j \times j\newline6j2=2×3×j×j6j^2 = 2 \times 3 \times j \times j\newlineFind the greatest common factor of 2j32j^3 and 6j26j^2.\newlineCommon factors are 22, jj, and jj.\newline2×j×j=2j22 \times j \times j = 2j^2\newlineGreatest common factor: 2j22j^2
