Given:

The expression is


27+9

To find:

The expression as a multiple of a sum of two numbers with no common factor.

Solution:

We have,


27+9

It can be written as


=3* 9+9

Using distributive property taking out the common factors.


=(3+1)9
[\because a(b+c)=ab+ac]

Therefore, the required expression is
(3+1)9.
