Question

What is the GCF OF -20v-50

Answer 1

`\text{In order to find your GCF, you need to factor}\\\\\text{This means that you need to break down the expression}\\\\\text{The expression is -20v-50}\\\\\text{The GCF ios the factor that all the terms can be simplified by}\\\\\text{In this case, you would see that they oculd be simplified by -10}\\\\\text{Factor out -10:}\\\\-10((2v+5)\\\\\text{This means that the GCF is -10}\\\\\boxed{\text{GCF: -10}}`

Answer 2

The GCF is -10

Explanation:

-10 in the highest/largest number that goes into both -20 and -50.

if you have to factor -20v-50 as well it would be:

-10(2v+5)

and to check if that answer is correct, distribute -10 inside the parenthesses:

-10 times 2v = -20v

-10 times 5 = -50

-20v-50
