Learn how to factor out the GCF from a binomial

The video tutorial discusses the concept of square terms, highlighting that while X squared and 9 are square terms, 6 is not. It explains that the difference of two squares cannot be applied when a term is not a square. The tutorial then shifts to factoring using the greatest common factor (GCF), demonstrating how to factor out a common factor of 3 from the expression. The instructor emphasizes that sometimes further factoring is not possible, addressing common student misconceptions and errors in factoring.
