Question

Find the common factor(s) of
$15x^3,4x^2\text{and}10x.$

• A. $2,x$
• B. $2,x^2$
• C. $x$
• D. $x^2$

Answer 1

The correct option is C $x$

$15x^3,4x^2\text{and}10x$ can be factorized as,
$15x^3=3\times 5\times x\times x\times x$
$4x^2=2\times 2\times x\times x$
$10x=2\times 5\times x$
We can observe that among the three terms, the common factor is $x.$
