Question

Find the greatest common factor of the terms in the following expression: 32rt – 12t.8 rt12 t4 t6 t

Answer 1

Given:

$32rt-12t$

To find:

The greatest common factor

Explanation:

It can be written as follows,

$32rt-12t=(4t\times8r)-(4t\times3)$

Here, the common factors are 4 and t.

So, we can write it as,

$=4t(8r-3)$

Thus, the greatest common factor is,

$4t$

Final answer:

The greatest common factor of the given expression is,

$4t$
