Determine the greatest common factor of 
-5j³k⁷m² and -20jk²m⁵

• -5jk²m²

• -20j³k⁷m⁵

• -5j³k⁷m⁵

• -20jk²m²

Which of the following is a good definition for the Greatest Common Factor of a polynomial?

• The constants and variables that are the smallest

• The constants and variables that are the largest

• The largest combination of constants and variables you can "pull out" of a polynomial

• The common factor that is the greatest

Why do we need to find the GCF of polynomials? Choose the BEST option.

• Because Ms. Cooper and Ms. Glefke said so

• To simplify the polynomials as much as possible before working with them

• To get rid of stuff

• Because the GCF makes the problem impossible to solve
