We know that the numerical coefficients of given numerical are 9, 15, 16 and 21
Greatest common factor of 9, 15, 16 and 21 is 3.
Common literals appearing in given numerical are x and y
Smallest power of x in four monomials is 1
Smallest power of y in four monomials is 0
Monomials of common literals with smallest power is x
∴ The greatest common factor = 3x
