Question

Factor this expression completely and then place the factors in the proper location on the grid.

ab + 2a + 3b + 6

Answer 1

This was a little confusing. I had trouble getting the right answer, but it is all there. It was (a+3) *(b+2) for me.

Answer 2

Greetings!

Factor by Grouping.

`ab+2a+3b+6`

`a(b+2)+3(b+2)`
Find the GCF.

`(b+2)(a+3)`

Hope this helps.
