Factoring by GCF Method

Factor out the GCF:
10x³ - 15x

• x(10x² - 15)

• 5x(2x² - 3)

• 5(2x³ - 3x)

• 5x²(10x - 3)

Factor out the GCF:

2n²-8n³

• 2n²(n-4n²)

• 2n²(1-4n)

• 2n³(10-8n²)

• 3n(1-4n)

Factor out the GCF:

2x + 18

• 2(x + 9)

• 2(x + 8)

• 2(2x + 9)

• cannot be factored

Factor out the GCF:

x² - 5x

• 1(x - 5)

• x(x - 5x)

• x(x - 5)

• x²(1 - 5)

Factor out the GCF:

w³ + 3w

• 3w(1)

• w(w² + 3)

• w³(w + 3)

Factor out the GCF:

18x + 30

• 2(9x + 15)

• 3 ( 6x + 10)

• 9 ( 2x + 3)

• 6 ( 3x + 5)

Factor out the GCF:

24x - 64

• 12 (2x - 5)

• 6 (4x - 12)

• 8 (3x - 8)

• 24 (x - 3)

Factor out the GCF:

-9x + 33

• 3 (-3x + 11)

• -9 (x + 4)

• -3 (3x + 11)

• 9 ( -x + 4)

Factor out the GCF:

5x + 33

• 5(x+7)

• no common factor, so I can't do it!

Factor out the GCF:

28ab + 2b

• 4ab(7+2b)

• 2ab(14a+1b)

• 2b(14a+2)

• 2b(14a+1)
