Given:

The expression is:


6x^2+3x+21

To find:

The factor of the given expression by GCF.

Solution:

It is given that,


6x^2+3x+21

The terms of the given expression are
6x^2,3x,21. The greatest common factor of these terms is 3.


6x^2+3x+21=3* 2x^2+3* x+3* 7

So, taking out the GCF, the given expression can be rewritten as:


6x^2+3x+21=3(2x^2+x+7)

Therefore, the factor form of the given expression by GCF is
3(2x^2+x+7).
