Answer 1

30x - 12 = 2(15x - 6)

30x - 12 = 3(10x - 4)

30x - 12 = 6(5x - 2)

Explanation:

30 and 12 have these factors in common: 2, 3, 6

There are three possible answers.

30x - 12 = 2(15x - 6)

30x - 12 = 3(10x - 4)

30x - 12 = 6(5x - 2)

Answer 2

30x and 12 have a common factor of 6. So yes, this might have been the result of distributing the 6 in

6(5x - 2)
