FP 7-1 Factoring

Factoring is the inverse of the distributive property. 

The terms 2•3 + 2•a both have a greatest common

factor of 2.  Therefore 2 can be factored out of both

terms by dividing both by 2.  It becomes 2(3+a).

 

What is the greatest common factor for 4 + 8x?

What is the greatest

common factor for

6x + 8?

What is the greatest

common factor for

6x - 24?
For the following problems, factor the given
term out of the expression. Be sure to use
parentheses when factoring. An example
is below:
Follow all integer rules!
Ex: Factor 3 out of 3x-6
Answer: 3(x-2)
Factor 4 out of 12x+8
Do not put spaces between numbers, variables, and signs.
4(       )
Factor 3 out of 9x-15
3(     )
Factor -2 out of -10x+12
-2(     )
Factor -5 out of -25x-30
Factor 7 out of 14x+7
Factor 2 out of 6x+8y-10
Factor -3 out of -9x+18y-3
Factor 5 out of 25a-35
