70−40p

Answer 1

10( 7-4p)

Explanation:

factor out 10 as the greatest common factor

10 (7-4p)

because 10 times 7 is 70 and 10 times -4p is -40p

Answer 2

`10(7 - 4p)`

Explanation:

Step 1: Pull of the GCF

The GCF is 10 in this case because it is the biggest number that we are able to pull out from both 70 and 40.

`70 - 40p`

`(10 * 7) + (10 * -4p)`

`10(7 - 4p)`

Answer:
`10(7 - 4p)`
