Question

What is the factored form of the polynomial 27x2y – 43xy2?

Answer 1

The answer is A) xy(27x - 43y)

Good luck! :)

Answer 2

27x²y - 43xy²

Factor of 27
1 x 27
3 x 9

Factor of 43
1 x 43

As you can see, there is no common number between 27 and 43, thus these numbers cannot be factored and must remain as is.

x and y are present in both terms, so we factor them.

xy(27x - 43y)
