Find the GCF 1) 12b² and 16b²
Answer (1)
1. Find the GCF of the coefficients: The greatest common factor of 12 and 16 is 4.2. Find the GCF of the variables: Both terms have b^2, so the GCF of the variables is b^2.3. Combine the GCFs: Therefore, the greatest common factor of 12b^2 and 16b^2 is \boxed{4b^2}.
