How do you factor 7x-63?

Answer 1

Oh, dude, it's like super easy! So, first you can factor out the greatest common factor, which is 7. Then you're left with x - 9. And that's it! You've factored 7x - 63 into 7(x - 9). Easy peasy lemon squeezy!

Answer 2

Find the Greatest Common Factor in 7x-63. The GCF is 7 so 7 gets placed first and outside of the parentheses such as 7( ) now...what does that leave behind, it leaves behind an 'x' and -63. Can 7 go into x? No. Can 7 go into 63? Yes! 9 times! Now you continue filling in the parentheses. Since x didn't go into the 7, you simply place the x on the left side (inside the parentheses) and the -9 on the right side (inside the parentheses) For Example.... 7(x-9). That's all there is to it!
