Answer: 4
Step-by-step explanation:
The given expressions : \(8m,\ 36m^3\ and\ 12\)
The prime factorization of 8m is given by :-
\(8m=2\times2\times2\times m\)
The prime factorization of \(36m^3\) is given by :-
\(36m^3=2\times2\times3\times3\times m\times \times m\)
The prime factorization of \(12\) is given by :-
\(12=2\times2\times3\)
We can see that the greatest common factor of \(8m,\ 36m^3\ and\ 12\) is \(2\times2=4\)
Thus, the greatest common factor of \(8m,\ 36m^3\ and\ 12=4\)
