\[24a^2\] and \[60ab\]?
OpenStudy (cjay99):
Yeah
OpenStudy (anonymous):
there is an \(a\) in both right?
OpenStudy (cjay99):
yeah
OpenStudy (anonymous):
how about 60 and 24? what is the largest number that goes in to both evenly ?
if you don't know, guess and i will check

4?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
12a
OpenStudy (anonymous):
you can do better than 4
OpenStudy (cjay99):
12?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
what @mikey356333 said, 12 goes in to both evenly since \(12\times 2=24\) and \(12\times 5=60\)

so final answer is \(12a\)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
i said that so i was right
OpenStudy (cjay99):
what about the b?
RhondaSommer (rhondasommer):
@mikey356333 your fatal flaw was that you gave an immediate answer and did not care to explain ^_^ try explaining next time.

okay then put the explanation and your answer in the same box instead of doing it individualy :) thnx
OpenStudy (anonymous):
\(b\) is a factor of \(60ab\) but \(24a^2\) doesn’t have a \(b\) in it
OpenStudy (cjay99):
okay thanks!
OpenStudy (anonymous):
polynomial gcd [24a2,60ab
OpenStudy (anonymous):
i am not done hold on
