Hii!

______________________________________________________

Answer:

Explanation:

Note that, -6x and 18 have something in common. This "something" is -6, so we factor it out by dividing both terms of the expression by it.

We obtain.

-x+3

Put parentheses around it.

(-x+3)

Put 6 outside the parentheses

6(-x+3)
