Question

Write each number as a product using the GCF as a factor in apply to distribute property 14+21

Answer 1

7(2 + 3)

Explanation:

The Greatest Common Factor of 14 & 21 is 7

So, the answer is

7(2 + 3)

Answer 2

The greatest common factor (GCF) of 14 and 21 is 7.

So we can write 14 and 21 as the product of 7 and their corresponding quotients:

14 = 7 * 2

21 = 7 * 3

Now we can apply the distributive property and combine them:

14 + 21 = 7 * 2 + 7 * 3 = 7 * (2 + 3) = 7 * 5 = 35

The final answer is 35.
