Q. Factor 140c+2814a 140 c+28-14 a to identify the equivalent expressions.\newlineChoose 22 answers:\newlineA 7(20c+42a) 7(20 c+4-2 a) \newlineB 2(70c+2814a) 2(70 c+28-14 a) \newlinec 14(10c+2a) 14(10 c+2-a) \newlineD 2(70a+147c) 2(70 a+14-7 c)
  1. Identify GCF of terms: Identify the greatest common factor (GCF) of the terms 140c140c, 2828, and 14a-14a.\newlineThe GCF of 140140, 2828, and 1414 is 1414.
  2. Factor out GCF from each term: Factor out the GCF from each term in the expression. \newline140c+2814a=14(10c)+14(2)14(a)140c + 28 - 14a = 14(10c) + 14(2) - 14(a)\newline=14(10c+2a)= 14(10c + 2 - a)
  3. Check factored expression: Check the factored expression against the given choices.\newlineThe factored expression 14(10c+2a)14(10c + 2 - a) matches choice C.
  4. Check for additional factoring: Check if there is another factor that can be factored out to match any other given choices.\newlineSince 1414 is the GCF, no further factoring is possible that would match the given choices.
