It's quite simple really :)
What do 10 and 15 have in common? 5.
10 / 5 = 2
15 / 5 = 3
So you times 2 by 5 to get 10, and 3 by 5 to get 15!
Put 5 outside the brackets, and then put the two numbers inside the brackets. Since it's 10x, you know you will have to write 2x inside the brackets, and since it's -15, you have to write -3 (not +3!)
So the answer would be: 5(2x-3)
Check it by solving the equation - multiplying out of the brackets :)
Factorise fully is when brackets are involved in the equation
m(g-a)
In the same way that you would factorise any other expressions that do not contain an equality sign depending on the expressions of which none have been given.
5(3-2x)
2a(2b-c) :P

Factorise fully is when brackets are involved in the equation
a²-a = a(a-1)
To factorise is to find the numbers that divide into the original number by only using prime numbers. For example factorise 20 = 2 times 2 times 5
1x150, 2x75, 3x50, 5x30, 6x25, 10x15
square root of 10x15, or about 12.2474487
to put into brackets
you do (245x)
