What is your first step in Factoring Expressions?

• Write the GCF on the outside of parenthesis!

• Divide both coefficients by GCF!

• Underline terms and circle coefficients!

• Find the GCF!

What is the second step for Factoring Expressions?

• Find GCF!

• Write GCF outside the parenthesis!

• Underline terms and circle coefficients!

• Divide both coefficients by GCF!

What should you do after finding the GCF in Factoring Expressions?

• Divide the GCF from each term.

• Add the GCF to each term.

• Multiply each term by the GCF.

• Subtract the GCF from each term.

What is a common mistake to avoid when factoring expressions?

• Ignoring the variable parts of terms.

• Factoring out the LCM instead of the GCF.

• Using addition instead of multiplication.

• Applying incorrect exponent rules.
