Using factor trees to identify the GCF and factor it out of a binomial

The video tutorial explains how to factor out the Greatest Common Factor (GCF) from algebraic expressions. It begins with an introduction to the concept of GCF, followed by a discussion on prime numbers and their significance in factoring. The tutorial then demonstrates how to factor common variables from expressions and concludes with a verification of the process.
