Answer:

Option C.

Explanation:

The given expression is


(2)/(3)x+4

We need to find the factored form of the given expression.

The given expression can be rewritten as


(2)/(3)x+((2)/(3)* (3)/(2))* 4


(2)/(3)x+(2)/(3)(6)

It is clear that
(2)/(3) is common.

Taking out common factors, we get


(2)/(3)(x+6)

It is the factored form of the given expression.

Hence, the correct option is C.
