\

First factor the each term in the expression.

\

100x3 2 · 2 · 5 · 5 · x · x · x

\

75y3 5 · 5 · 3 · y · y · y

\

The GCF is the product of the common prime factors in each term.

\

GCF = 5 · 5 = 25 \"\"

\

Write each term as a product of the GCF and its remaining factors.

\

100x3  + 75y3 = 25 (4x3) + 25(3y3)

\

Combine like terms uisng distribuitve property: ab + ac = a(b + c).

\

100x3  + 75y3 = 25 (4x3 + 3y3)\"\"

\

Simplified expression is 25 (4x3 + 3y3).
