If you factor a 3 out of each term what expression do you end up with?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

umm the last one?

OpenStudy (shane_b):

No :) To factor a 3 out of each term it would look like this: \[\frac{6a}{3}+\frac{15b}{3}-\frac{9c}{3}=2a+5b-3c\]and since you divided everything by 3, you have to balance things out by multiplying this entire expression by 3. That leaves you with: \[3(2a+5b-3c)\]
