<h3>Answer: </h3>
The GCF is 4
The polynomial factors to 
==========================================================
Further explanation:
Ignore the x terms
We're looking for the GCF of 12, 4 and 20
Factor each to their prime factorization. It might help to do a factor tree, but this is optional.
- 12 = 2*2*3
- 4 = 2*2
- 20 = 2*2*5
Each factorization involves "2*2", which means 2*2 = 4 is the GCF here.
We can then factor like so

The distributive property pulls out that common 4. We can verify this by distributing the 4 back in, so we get the original expression back again.
The polynomial inside the parenthesis cannot be factored further. Proof of this can be found by looking at the roots and noticing that they aren't rational numbers (use the quadratic formula).
2.33.......ok, 2 is ur whole number....33 is ur fraction...the last digit is in the hundredths place....so put it over 100
ur mixed number is 2 33/100...and this does not reduce
Step 1. Divide denominator to numerator .
Step 2. you should have 5.4
Step 3. Keep the denominater (5) and add 5.4 as your numerator. <span />
12(months) x 20 (years) = 240
10.98 x 240 = 2635.20
So Arthur will pay $2635.20 over 20 years for premium.
I hope this helps :)
The lowest one is 4, just multiply the first fraction by 2
