Q. Factor out the greatest common factor. If the greatest common factor is 11, just retype the polynomial. \newline6a2+86a^2 + 8
  1. Determine GCF: Now that we have determined the GCF is 22, we can factor it out from each term in the polynomial.\newline6a26a^2 can be written as 2×3a22 \times 3a^2, and 88 can be written as 2×42 \times 4. Factoring out the GCF of 22, we get:\newline6a2+8=2(3a2)+2(4)=2(3a2+4)6a^2 + 8 = 2(3a^2) + 2(4) = 2(3a^2 + 4)
