For this case we have the following expressions:

\(72x ^ 2y

18xy
\)

The biggest common factor for each expression is given by:

\(72x ^ 2y = 18xy (4x)

18xy = 18xy (1)
\)

Therefore, the biggest common factor is the one that is repeated in both terms.

We have then that for this case is:


\(18xy
\)

Answer:

the greatest common factor of 72x ^ 2y and 18xy is:

D. 18xy
