Given:
(15x - 5)
To factor a number from another number means to divide both number.
If 5 is factored from both terms, we have:
15x ÷ 5 = 3x remainder 0
5 ÷ 5 = 1 remainder 0
Therefore, we have:
5(3x - 1)
Thus, the number that remains in the second term is .
This is because when 5 divides 5, the remainder is zero.
5 ÷ 5 = 1 remainder 0
ANSWER:
After factoring we have: 5(3x - 1)
The remainder in the second term is 0
