1. **Problem:** Identify the greatest common factor (GCF) for each expression.
2. **Formula:** The GCF is the largest factor that divides all terms in the polynomial.
3. **Work:**
a. $15c^2 - 65c$
Factors of 15 and 65 are 15 and 65; common factor is 5.
Both terms have at least one $c$, so GCF is $5c$.
b. $16x^2 - 64x + 11$
Factors of 16 and 64 are 16; 11 is prime and does not share factors.
No common factor for all three terms, so GCF is 1 (none).
c. $8m^2 + 14m - 4$
Factors of 8, 14, and 4 are 2.
No common variable in all terms, so GCF is 2.
**Final answers:**
a. $5c$
b. None
c. $2$
Gcf Identification 4B58Dc
