Learn how to factor out the GCF of a trinomial

The video tutorial explains how to identify the greatest common factor (GCF) of numbers and variables. It begins by finding the largest number that divides given numbers evenly, followed by identifying the largest variable power that divides given terms. The tutorial concludes with dividing each term by the GCF, applying the rules of exponents to simplify the expression.

Explain the process of dividing each term by the GCF.

What is the GCF of the terms 8, 6, and 12?
