How do you determin the common factors in an expression.
The GCF is 4x.
For each expression, divide the numerator and denominator by their greatest common factor.
If there is no common factor other than 1 in a rational expression, it is in simplest terms or form.
Nothing is a factor BY ITSELF; you can say that one expression is a factor OF ANOTHER EXPRESSION. IF you don't specify the other expression, the question is meaningless.
I need to; factor each expression 10x + 40 = ?
the common factor is 1.
An expression is in its lowest terms if the greatest common factor of the numerator and denominator is one.An expression is in its lowest terms if the greatest common factor of the numerator and denominator is one.An expression is in its lowest terms if the greatest common factor of the numerator and denominator is one.An expression is in its lowest terms if the greatest common factor of the numerator and denominator is one.
a common factor
If an expression does not have a common factor, then it is called a "prime" expression.
To find the common factor when factorising, look for any common factors that can be divided evenly from all the terms in the expression. Divide each term by this common factor, and then factorise the resulting expression further if possible. This will help simplify the expression and make it easier to work with.
Factor out the Greatest Common Factor.
2x
The greatest common factor (GCF) refers to a factor that is COMMON to two or more numbers or expressions. You have only one expression in the question! The greatest factor of any expression is itself.
Find a number that evenly divides each term of the expression.
The question cannot be answered since "common constant factor" is not a recognised expression.
If it does not have a common factor, you cannot factorise it!
All you can factor out is the common factor 2. 2(a^3 - 64)
