The smallest exponents of the x and y term are 2. The Greatest Common Factor ( G C F ) for 9 x² y² and 5 x² y³ is:  x² y².

Answer:

The GCF of monomial [tex]9x^2y^2[/tex] and [tex]5x^2y^3[/tex]  is  [tex]x^2y^2[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given monomial [tex]9x^2y^2[/tex] and [tex]5x^2y^3[/tex]

We have to find the GCF of the given monomial.

GCF stands for greatest common factor that is a factor that divides the given numbers.

[tex]9x^2y^2[/tex]  can be written in factors form as

[tex]9x^2y^2=3 \cdot 3 \cdot x \cdot x \cdot y \cdot y[/tex]

And

[tex]5x^2y^3[/tex] can be written in factors form as

[tex]5x^2y^3=5\cdot x \cdot x \cdot y \cdot y \cdot y[/tex]

Taking common factor, we have [tex]x^2y^2[/tex]

Thus, the GCF of monomial [tex]9x^2y^2[/tex] and [tex]5x^2y^3[/tex]  is  [tex]x^2y^2[/tex]
