Question

Apply the distributive property to factor out the greatest common factor. 35+50=35+50=?

Answer 1

Answer: 5(7+10)

Step-by-step explanation:

5 is the greatest common factor 35 and 50

35+50

= 5 ⋅ 7 + 5 ⋅ 10

= 5(7+10)

The answer:

5(7+10)

Answer 2

Answer with explanation:

The given mathematical expression to solve :
`35+50`

The prime factorization of each term can be written as follows :-

`35=5*7`

`50=5*5*2`

We can see that the greatest common factor of both the terms =
`5`

So we rewrite the given expression as :-

`5*7+5*10`

By using distributive property :-

`ab+ac=a(b+c)` , we have

`=5(7+10)=5(17)=85`
