Question

how do i factor 74x+74 I understand the common factor is 74 but where do I put x then?

Answer 1

if you write it as
74*x + 74*1

and then "undo" the distribution

Answer 2

remember the distributive property.
example
2( 3+5) = 2*3 + 2*5
undoing it would change 2*3 + 2*5 "back to" 2*(3+5)

Answer 3

so \[74(x+1)\]

Answer 4

yes
74(x+1)
as a check, distribute the 74 to get 74x + 74
which is what you started with.

Answer 5
