answer: 4(2x - 5)
explanation: if you don’t know how to factor gcf, look it up. But you need to find the gcf of 8 and 20 which is 4. Then you just get your answer. Sorry this is hard to explain but a tip is to distribute and check to see that it matches the original problem to find out if your answer is right. I will do that for this. 4(2x - 5) I use distributive property here meaning I distribute the 4 to both terms. 4 times 2x is 8x. 4 times negative 5 is negative 20. That leaves me with the original equation 8x - 20 so the answer is correct.
