How do you factor out the GCF from a polynomial?

Back

1. Identify the GCF of the terms. 2. Divide each term by the GCF. 3. Write the expression as the GCF multiplied by the resulting polynomial.

Front

Factor the polynomial: 12t^3 + 30t^2 + 48t

Back

The GCF is 6t, so it factors to 6t(2t^2 + 5t + 8).

What is the GCF of the polynomial 24x^9 - 36x^6 + 60x^3?

Back

The GCF is 6x^3.

Front

Factor out the GCF from: -36x^2y - 18xy^2 + 6xy

Back

The GCF is -6xy, so it factors to -6xy(6x + 3y - 1).
