7x^(2)-49xy+28y^(2)
Factor out the GCF of 7 from the expression 7x^(2).
7(x^(2))-49xy+28y^(2)
Factor out GCF of 7 from the expression -49xy
7(x^(2))+7(-7xy)+28y^(2)
Factor out GCF of 7 from the expression 28y^(2)
7(x^(2))+7(-7xy)+7(4y^(2))
Factor out the GCF of 7 from 7x^(2)-49xy+28y^(2).
7(x^(2)-7xy+4y^(2))

can you work me through each step and take it slow please
sam (.sam.):
the GCF of the whole equation is 7
OpenStudy (anonymous):
7 goes into all of them..7*7=49 and 4*7=28
sam (.sam.):
yes, so you can factor the 7 out
