Identify Common Factor: Identify the common factor in both terms.The common factor in both terms is (6x+7)6 because it is the highest power of (6x+7) that divides both terms.
Factor Out Common Factor: Factor out the common factor from both terms.We can write the expression as (6x+7)6×[10−(6x+7)].
Simplify Expression: Simplify the expression inside the brackets.Subtracting 6x+7 from 10 gives us 10−(6x+7)=10−6x−7=3−6x.
Write Final Form: Write the final factored form.The completely factored form of the expression is (6x+7)6×(3−6x).
