Find the greatest common factor. $$ 2 m^{3}, 6 m^{3} $$

Question

UpStudy AI · Accepted Answer

1. Write down the two expressions:
   $$
   2m^3 \quad \text{and} \quad 6m^3.
   $$

2. Find the greatest common factor (GCF) of the numerical coefficients:
   $$
   \text{GCF}(2, 6) = 2.
   $$

3. For the variable part $$ m^3 $$ in both expressions, the GCF is $$ m^3 $$ (since both have the same power).

4. Multiply the GCF of the coefficients and the variable:
   $$
   2 \times m^3 = 2m^3.
   $$

Thus, the greatest common factor is:
$$
\boxed{2m^3}.
$$
The greatest common factor is $$ 2m^3 $$.
