Question

What does 13m2n3p + 21mp2 equal when completely factored?

13mp(mn3 + 2p)



m2p2(13n3 + 21)



mp(13mn3 + 21p)



mnp(13mn2 + 21p)

Answer 1

If you would like to factor completely 13m^2n^3p + 21mp^2, you can do this using the following steps:

13m^2n^3p + 21mp^2 = mp * (13mn^3 + 21p)

The correct result would be mp * (13mn^3 + 21p).
