Q. Apply the distributive property to factor out the greatest common factor.90+27=
Identify GCF of 90 and 27: Identify the greatest common factor (GCF) of 90 and 27. To do this, list the factors of each number and find the largest factor they have in common.Factors of 90: 1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 270, 271, 272, 273, 274, 275, 90Factors of 27: 1, 3, 270, 27The GCF of 90 and 27 is 270.
Apply distributive property: Apply the distributive property to factor out the GCF from the expression 90+27.This means we will express 90 and 27 as multiples of 9 and then factor 9 out.90 can be expressed as 9×10 and 27 can be expressed as 9×3.
Write expression with factored terms: Write the original expression with the factored terms. 90+27 can be rewritten as (9×10)+(9×3).
Factor out GCF from expression: Factor out the GCF, which is 9, from the expression.This gives us 9×(10+3).
Simplify expression inside parentheses: Simplify the expression inside the parentheses. 10+3=13.
Write final factored expression: Write the final factored expression.The expression 9×(10+3) simplifies to 9×13.
