Question

Factor the GCF. 6m3 + 14m2 – 18m

Answer 1

The common factors, if you look closely, are \(m\) and \(2\). You multiply the common factors to get the GCF.

Answer 2

Just like you did in elementary math, you multiplied the common factors, right?

Answer 3

first take numbers
GCF of 6, 14 and 18 = 2
and of variables
m3, m2, m - which of these will divide into all three

Answer 4

m

Answer 5

and 2

Answer 6

yup

Answer 7

so product of these is the required GCF

Answer 8

2m(3m^2 + 7m – 9)

Answer 9

right
