    2c^5 is the greatest common factor.

    Step-by-step explanation:

    I believe you meant 50c^6 and 16c^5. c6 and c5 have no meaning. c^6 and c^5 are the sixth and fifth powers of c, respectively.

    What do the two terms of 50c^6 and 16c^5 have in common? c^5 is common to both c^6 and c^5, and so, if we factor out c^5, we get:

    c^5 (50c + 16).

    Note that 50c and 16 have only 2 as their common factor: 2 (25c + 8). Thus, the final factored form of 50c^6 and 16c^5 is 2c^5 (25c + 8).

    2c^5 is the greatest common factor.
