Hey there!
36y - 12
FIRST LOOK AT THE GCF (Greatest Common Factor)
36y: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 9, 12, 18, 36, and y
12: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, and 12
GCF: 12
So, 12 would most likely be number before you make your parentheses
12(?y - 1)
The numbers in your original equation both share 3 & -1
So, therefore the factor form of your equation should be: 12(3y - 1)
Answer: 12(3y - 1)
Good luck on your assignment & enjoy your day!

If you would like to know if Miles is going to spend more or fewer hours bicycling this week than last week, you can calculate this using the following steps:
2/3 as many hours:
2/3 * x hours
Because 2/3 is less than 3/3 = 1, this means that Miles is going to spend fewer hours bicycling this week than last week.
