Answer:

GCF = 12y

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to find the GCF of 48y and 36xy

For finding the GCF, we find the factors of these two expression.

The factors are

[tex]48y=2\times2\times2\times3\times y[/tex]

[tex]36xy=2\times2\times3\times3\times x\times y[/tex]

Now, we see the common terms in these two. That will be the GCF.

GCF = common terms in these two factors.

We can see that [tex]2\times2\times3\times y=12y[/tex] is common.

Hence, GCF = 12y
