Question
Factor out the GCF from each polynomial.$$\frac{2}{5} y^{7}-\frac{4}{5} y^{5}+\frac{3}{5} y^{2}-\frac{2}{5} y$$
Step 1
The GCF is the highest power of the variable that divides evenly into all terms and the largest number that divides evenly into all coefficients. In this case, the GCF is $\frac{1}{5}y$. Show more…
