Identify Factors: Identify common factors in pairs of terms.We can group the terms as 7st+7s and 3t+3 to look for common factors in each group.
Factor Out Common Factors: Factor out the common factors from each group.From the first group 7st+7s, we can factor out 7s, giving us 7s(t+1).From the second group 3t+3, we can factor out 3, giving us 3(t+1).
Rewrite Expression: Rewrite the expression with the factored groups.The expression now looks like 7s(t+1)+3(t+1).
Factor Out Binomial Factor: Factor out the common binomial factor.We can see that (t+1) is a common factor in both terms, so we factor it out.The factored form is (t+1)(7s+3).
