Factoring by Gcf of Polynomials

Factor by using GCF:

8n³ + 2n²

• 2n²(4n-1)

• 2n²(4n + 1)

• n²(8n+2)

• 3n(4n+1)

Factor by using GCF:

• x(3x² + 9x - 15)

• 3x(x² + 3x - 5)

• 3x(x² - 9x + 15)

• x(3x² -9x + 15)

Factor by using GCF:

4b⁵+4b³+16b²

• 4b³(b⁴+b²+4b)

• 4b³(b⁴+4b+5)

• 4(b⁵+b³+4b²)

• 4b²(b³+b+4)

Factor by using GCF:

8r³ + 16r²

• 4r²(2r + 4)

• 8r²(r + 2)

• 8(r³ + r²)

• 4(r³ + 2r²)

What is the first step when factoring polynomials?

• Find the GCF

• List all the terms

• Make a triangle

• Write the answer

Factor using GCF

16x² - 20xy

• 4 (4x² - 5xy)

• 4x (4x - 5y)

• 4x² (4 - 5y)

• 2(duck)

Factor the GCF
39y⁵ + 12y⁴ - 3y³

• 3y(13y⁴ + 4y³ - y²)

• 3y³(13y² + 4y - 1)

• y³(39y² + 12y - 3)

• not factorable

Factor using GCF

18a²-15a

• 15a(3a-1)

• 3a(6a-1)

• 3(6a-5)

• 3a(6a-5)

Factor using GCF

12x + 9

• 3(4x + 3)

• x(12+9)

• 3(4x - 3)

• not factorable

What is the GCF of 28ab and 42b?

• 4b

• 6b

• 7b

• 14b
