Question
What is the GCF of $y^{4}, y^{5}$, and $y^{10} ?$ Write a general rule that tells you how to find the GCF of $y^{a}, y^{b},$ and $y^{c}$.
Step 1
The GCF is the greatest common factor, which means we want to find the highest power of $y$ that divides all three terms. In this case, the lowest exponent is 4, so the GCF is $y^{4}$. Show more…
