Factor completely 12n + 8n

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Factor out the greatest common factor of n and n Factor out the greatest common factor of 12 and 8

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Wait! the problem is actually 12n^2 + 8n

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Factor out the greatest common factor of n and n^2 Factor out the greatest common factor of 12 and 8

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I'm really sorry but I don't understand.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I did 4(3n+2n) and it said incorrect, can you possibly just tell me what I need to write so I can move onto another question?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

You didn't factor the N's properly

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Well how do I do that?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Factor out the greatest common factor of n and n^2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I dont understand, would it be n or ^2 or something different I really don't understand this question

OpenStudy (anonymous):

What value goes into both n and n^2? It's REALLY easy!!!!!!! :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

would it be 4n(3n + 2n)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

It said incorrect and it won't let me answer it again. If the question come back can you just tell me what the answer would be?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

When you take out an N, be sure to remove it from BOTH 3n^2 and 4n

OpenStudy (anonymous):

wait.. so what would be the complete answer, like what i would write. I more than likely won't get it again so can you please just tell me so I can use it as a reference for other questions?
