-$s ^ { 5 } t ^ { 4 } , s ^ { 2 } t ^ { 6 }$
A) $s ^ { 7 } t ^ { 6 }$
B) $s ^ { 2 } t ^ { 2 }$
C) $\mathrm { s } ^ { 2 } \mathrm { t } ^ { 4 }$
D) $s ^ { 5 } t ^ { 4 }$

The GCF is the product of the smallest exponent of each variable. Here, the smallest exponent of $s$ is 2 and the smallest exponent of $t$ is 4, so the GCF is $s^2t^4$.
