Q. Factor out the greatest common factor. If the greatest common factor is 1, just retype the polynomial. 6u3+9u2
Divide by GCF: Now we divide each term by the GCF to factor it out. For the first term, 6u3 divided by 3u2 gives us 2u. For the second term, 9u2 divided by 3u2 gives us 3. So, the polynomial 6u3+9u2 can be factored as 3u2(2u+3).
