FACTORING

Factoring polynomials with a


common monomial factor using
the concept of GCF.
What is common among the following?
3 and 6 10 and 15

GCF: 3 GCF: 5
13 and 9 24 and 18

GCF: 1 GCF: 6
𝟐 𝟒 𝟐𝟎 𝟕
𝒙 ∧𝒙 𝒂 ∧𝒂

GCF: GCF:
𝟒 𝒂∧𝟏𝟔 𝟓 𝒙 ∧𝟏𝟎 𝒙
𝟓 𝟐

GCF: GCF:
Step 1: Find the Greatest Common
Monomial Factor
Step 2: Divide each term in the
polynomial by the GCMF
Step 3: Write in factored form
Factor the following completely.
1.) 6x+12 6 ( x + 2)

2.) 5x-15 5 ( x - 3)

3.) 8x-40 8 ( x - 5)
Factor the following completely.

4.)

5.)
Factor the following completely.

6. 𝒑 𝒒 𝒓 −𝒒 𝒓 + 𝒑 𝒒 − 𝒒𝒓
𝟐 𝟑 𝟒 𝟐 𝟒

7. 𝟐 𝒙𝒚 ( 𝒂+ 𝒃 ) −𝟒 𝒙 ( 𝒂+ 𝒃)

8. 𝟓𝟏𝒎𝒏+𝟔𝟖𝒎𝒏−𝟑𝟒 𝒎𝒏
Factor the following completely.
9.) 2(a+b) + x (a+b)

10.)
Try to factor this!
3 2 2
Ex: 6c d  12c d  3cd

2
 3cd(2c  4cd  1)
Factor these :
3 2
1. 6x  3x  12x
2
2. 5x  10x  35
3. 16x y z  8x y z  12xy z
