Factor out the GCF

The video tutorial explains how to factor an expression by identifying and factoring out the greatest common factor (GCF). It begins with an introduction to the concept of GCF, followed by steps to find the GCF of numbers. The tutorial then demonstrates how to factor out the GCF from an expression, including factoring variables and exponents. Finally, it shows how to complete the factoring process and verify the work using the distributive property.
