B) $8 a ^ { 5 } b ^ { 2 }$
C) $704 a ^ { 9 } b ^ { 9 }$
D) $8 a ^ { 9 } b ^ { 9 }$

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The GCF of the numerical coefficients 64 and 88 is 8. For the variables, the GCF involves taking the lowest power of each variable present in both terms, which is $a^5$ and $b^2$. Therefore, the GCF is $8a^5b^2$.
