Question

Factor 24g - 36h. Remember that your answer needs to be factored completely.

Answer 1

The completed factor is
`=12(2g- 3h)`

Explanation:

To factor the expression we need to look for a value that is unique to both terms in the expression.

Given the expression

`24g - 36h`

The available factors common to both terms are 2,3,4,6,8,12. but since we are expected to factor the expression completely we will use the greatest common factor (gcf) to find the solution

The greatest but common factor is 12, hence we have

`=12(2g- 3h)`
