What is the GCF of a¹²b⁴, a⁴b⁸, a²⁴b¹⁶ and a¹²b²⁰?

Given:

a¹²b⁴, a⁴b⁸, a²⁴b¹⁶ and a¹²b²⁰.

To find:

The GCF of given terms.

Solution:

Greatest common factor (GCF): To find the GCF of two or more numbers, we need to find the product of their prime factor with their maximum powers.

The given terms are

Here, each term has two prime factors a and b. The highest power of a is 24 and the highest power of b is 20. So, the GCF of given terms is

Therefore, the GCF of a¹²b⁴, a⁴b⁸, a²⁴b¹⁶ and a¹²b²⁰ is a²⁴b²⁰.

  q

step-by-step explanation:

each line from a vertex to the midpoint of the opposite side is called a median. the point where the medians intersect, point q, is the centroid.

the centroid of δabc is point q.
