Full solution

Q. Factor out the greatest common factor. If the greatest common factor is 11, just retype the polynomial.\newline3k2+6k3k^2 + 6k
  1. Factor out GCF: Now, we factor out the GCF from each term. The GCF we found is 3k3k.3k23k^2 can be written as 3k×k3k \times k.6k6k can be written as 3k×23k \times 2.So, we factor out the GCF (3k3k) from each term.
  2. Write in factored form: After factoring out the GCF, we have: \newline3k2+6k=3k(k+2)3k^2 + 6k = 3k(k + 2).\newlineThis is the factored form of the polynomial with the GCF factored out.
