Algebra

Question 1

Gcf

Answer 1

Id prime factors, stack by number
Id factors in common in each column

Eg
54=2^1×3^3
72=2^3×3^2
90=2^1×3^2×5^1

GCF=2^1×3^2
Gcf=18

Question 2

Lcm

Answer 2

Stack factora, id'd the largest factors in each column 
Eg 
54=2^1×3^3
72=2^3×3^2
90=2^1×3^2×5^1

Lcm=2^3×3^3×5^1
