Question

Factor the expressions and write the equivalent expression1) 20h-52)15r+353)-4p+10

Answer 1

Answer:

1) 5 ( 4h - 1 )

2) 5 ( 3r + 7 )

3) 2( -2p +5 )

Step-by-step explanation:

For no. 1 you have to find a common factor (a number that divides into both 20 and 5) which is 5 because 20 divided by 5 is 4 and 5 divided by 5 is 1. so you have to do 20h divided by 5 which is 4h (don't forget the h ! ) and you do -5 divided by 1 which is -1. Remember when you do any multiplying or dividing questions with negatives and positives :

minus + minus = minus  (-5*-6 = -30)

positive + positive = positive (5*6 = 30)        * equals multiplacation by the way

minus + positive = minus (-5*6 = -30)

positive + minus = minus (5*-6 = -30)
