90y - 10x - 10

First, find the greatest common factor (GCF)
10 is the largest number that divides evenly into 90y, -10x, and -10.
The GCF is 10.

Second, factor out the GCF.
Put the GCF as the first term
In parentheses, divide each term by the GCF

10 ((90y)/(10) + (-10x)/(10) - (10)/(10) )

Third, simplify each term in the parentheses. / Your problem should look like: 10(9y - x - 1)

Answer: 10(9y - x - 1)
