Algebra 1 Factoring Out GCF of Polynomials

What is the first step when factoring polynomials?

• Find the GCF

• List all the terms

• Make the X and fill in the top and bottom

• Multiply a and c

What is the GCF of 24c⁵ - 12c³

• 6c³

• 12c²

• 12c³

• 24c³

Factor
27x³-64

• (3x-4)(9x²+12x+16)

• (3x-4)(9x²-12x+16)

• (3x+4)(9x²-12x+16)

• (3x+4)(9x²+12x+16)
