Using my knowledge of greatest common factors and the distributive property, I can tell that 45 + 63 is equal to 9(5 + 7) or 9 x 12, which is 108. Of course, I could also tell that from my knowledge of addition.
Suppose x and y are two terms with GCF k where the assumption (in this context) is that k is greater than 1. That implies that x = pk and y = qk where p and q are coprime terms. Then x + y = pk + qk and, using the distributive property, this is k*(p + q).
The expression ( (24a + 56b) ) can be factored by finding the greatest common factor (GCF) of the coefficients. The GCF of 24 and 56 is 8, so the equivalent expression can be factored as ( 8(3a + 7b) ).
(3 x 12) + (4 x 12) = 7 x 12 = 84
16 + 28 = (4 x 4) + (4 x 7) = 4 x 11 = 44
Does it look like I fing care Jesus
72 is factored into: 2*2*2*3*3 142 factored into: 2*71 Their greatest common factor is just 2
The greatest common factor is also one of the two numbers being factored when that number is a factor of the other one.
(21 x 2) + (25 x 2) = 46 x 2 = 92
To write a simplified expression in factored form, first identify common factors or patterns such as differences of squares, perfect squares, or the distributive property. Next, factor out the greatest common factor (GCF) if applicable. Then, look for any further factorization opportunities, such as factoring trinomials or using methods like grouping. Finally, rewrite the expression as a product of its factors, ensuring that it is in its simplest form.
The GCF is 16.
