Question

One of the factors of 6x3 − 864x is

Answer 1

the answer is -3(286x+1)

Answer 2

One of the factor is 6x.

Explanation:

Given : Expression
`6x^3-864x`

To find : One of the factors of the expression ?

Solution :

First we find the factor of each term,

`6x^3=2* 3* x* x* x`

`864x=2* 2* 2* 2* 2* 3* 3* 3* x`

`HCF(6x^3,864x)=2* 3* x`

`HCF(6x^3,864x)=6x`

So, one of the factor is 6x.

`6x^3-864x=6x(x^2-144)`

Another factor is
`x^2-144`
