i don't understand
we factorise a number by finding the common factor. example: 2x+6 = 2 is the common factor the 2 is then put outside the bracket 2x+6 = 2(x+3)
-9(a + b)

If it does not have a common factor, you cannot factorise it!
Neither. Factorise and then multiply a subset of factors.

First you factorise it. Then you cancel out the common terms.

You take out the common factor, namely, "g".
To factorise the expression (4a + 12b), first identify the greatest common factor (GCF) of the coefficients. The GCF of 4 and 12 is 4. You can then factor out 4 from the expression: [ 4(a + 3b). ] Thus, the factorised form is (4(a + 3b)).
You look for a common factor between the two terms, take it out, and use the distributive property.
To factorise the expression ( 12x^2 + 4x ), first identify the greatest common factor (GCF) of the terms. The GCF here is ( 4x ). Factor it out to get ( 4x(3x + 1) ). Thus, the expression can be written as ( 4x(3x + 1) ).
