Question

Find the greatest common factor of the polynomial:
$a^2 b^3, a^3 b^2$

✓

Answer

The common literals appearing in the three monomials are a and b.
The smallest power of $x$ in the two monomials is 2 .
The smallest power of $y$ in the two monomials is 2 .
The monomial of common literals with the smallest powers is $a^2 b^2$.
Hence, the greatest common factor is $a^2 b^2$.
