2x²(6x³+3x+4)

Answer 2

Option D is correct

factor completely of
`12x^5+6x^3+8x^2` is
`2x^2(6x^3+3x+4)`

Explanation:

GCF(Greatest Common Factor) states that the largest factor that divides the polynomial.

Given the expression:

`12x^5+6x^3+8x^2`

By definition of GCF we have;

Factor a GCF of the given expression.

Since GCF of
`12x^5`,
`6x^3` and
`8x^2` is
`2x^2`

then;

`2x^2(6x^3+3x+4)`

Therefore, factor completely of
`12x^5+6x^3+8x^2` is
`2x^2(6x^3+3x+4)`
