C\text{. }-6(4+2w)

Step-by-step explanation


-24-12w

Step 1

factorize each term


\begin{gathered} -24=-6\cdot4 \\ -12w=-6\cdot2w \end{gathered}

replace,


\begin{gathered} -24-12w=-6\cdot4-6\cdot2w \\ \text{the common factor is -6,so} \\ -24-12w=-6\cdot4-6\cdot2w=-6(4+2w) \end{gathered}

so, the answer is


C\text{. }-6(4+2w)

I hope this helps you.
