Factor Add and Subtract Expressions

Factor out the GCF
22x -220

• 2(11x-110)

• 22(x+10)

• 22(x -10)

Factor by GCF:
12x + 9

• 3(4x + 3)

• x(12+9)

• 3(4x - 3)

• not factorable

What is the first step to writing an expression in factored form?

• Find the GCF.

• Do the Distributive Property.

• Combine like terms.

• Solve what is inside of the parentheses.
