Answer:

Fill blank with 3 to complete the factorization of 3x + 24

Explanation:

Factorization is a way of writing a number as a product of several other prime numbers.

Consider the given expression 3x+24.

We have to find a number (a) such that when we multiply it with (x+8) we get the original expression 3x+24.

We will factorize the given expression.

3 can be taken common from both the terms.

Thus, 3x+24 can be written as 3(x+8)
