Factoring Out the GCF so that You can Solve a Polynomial to the 5th Degree

The video tutorial explains the process of factoring polynomials, starting with setting functions to zero and identifying the greatest common factor (GCF). It emphasizes understanding factoring as a division process, particularly when dealing with powers of X. The tutorial concludes with applying the zero product property to solve equations, demonstrating how to factor out terms and find solutions.
