Let’s find G.C.D of the following algebraic expression:
6x2-13xa + 6a2, 6x2 + 11xa-10a2, 6x2 + 2xa-4a2
Factors of 6x2-13xa + 6a2
=6x2-9xa-4xa + 6a2
=3x(2x-3a)-2a(2x-3a)
= (3x-2a)(2x-3a)
Factors of 6x2 + 11xa-10a2
= 6x2 + 15xa-4xa-10a2
=3x(2x + 5a)-2a(2x + 5a)
=(3x-2a)(2x + 5a)
Factors of 6x2 + 2xa-4a2
=6x2 + 6xa-4xa-4a2
=6x(x + a)-4a(x + a)
=(6x-4a)(x + a)
=2(3x-2a)(x + a)
GCD is the greatest common divisor, which is equal to the product of all the common divisors.
∴ the GCD of 6x2-13xa + 6a2, 6x2 + 11xa-10a2, 6x2 + 2xa-4a2is 3x-2a
