Answer 2

9 ( 2x - 1 )

Explanation:

→ Look for the HCF of the whole numbers

HCF of 18 and 9 is 9

→ Put 9 outside the brackets

9 ( ? - ? )

→ Perform the calculation 18x ÷ 9 to determine the first question mark

18x ÷ 9 = 2x ⇔ 9 ( 2x - ? )

→ Perform the calculation 9 ÷ 9 to determine the second question mark

9 ÷ 9 = 1 ⇔ 9 ( 2x - 1 )
