find the GCF of the terms of each polynomial. 1.63s+45 2.-18q^3-6q^2 3.108f^3-54 4.b^3+5b^2-20b 5.9m^3+30m-24 6.4p^3+12p^2-18p

OpenStudy (precal):

GCF means Greatest common factor 1. 63s + 45 63 is 9 * 7 45 is 9*5 9 is the GCF 9(7s+5)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Similarly, 2) has a common factor of 6q^2 so\[-18q^3-6q^2=-6q^2(3q+1)\]

You should be able to get the rest with these two examples.

GCF includes a minus sign; I missed it on the first line of my first reply.
