3x + 15???

Answer 1

Answer: 3(x+5) ✅

Explanation:

Hii, do you need to factor the expression 3x+15? Np! (:

Note that 3x and 15 have a 3 in common.

To factor it out, we divide 3x and 15 by 3.

x+5 is what we obtain

Next, we put parentheses around x+5

(x+5) is what we obtain

Finally, we put 3 outside the parentheses

3(x+5)

Voila! There's our answer, cheers! (:
