Solving a quadratic using by factoring out a GCF

The video tutorial explains how to solve equations by factoring out the greatest common factor (GCF). It begins by identifying common factors in coefficients and variables, then demonstrates the factoring process by setting the equation to zero. The tutorial applies the zero product property to solve the equation and uses inverse operations to find the solution. The process is verified using the distributive property.
