1) Determine the GCF of the numbers 96 and 88

=> Decompose each number in their prime numbers:

=> 96 = (2^5)(3)

=> 88 = (2^3) (11)

=> GCF of 96 and 88 = 2^3 = 8

2) Determine the GCF of the letters, x^2 and x

=> x

3) Conclude the GCF of the terms is 8x

4) Now you can factor the expression by dividing each term by the GCF, 8x:

96 x^2 / (8x) = 12x

88x / (8x) = 11

So, the factored form is (8x) (12x + 11)
