Question

Factor completely 8y^3+16y^2

Answer 1

Answer:

8y^2(y + 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

The given expression is 8y^3 + 16y^2

Let's find the greatest common factor of 8y^3 and 16y^2

The GCF is 8y^2. Let's take out the GCF outside and write the remaining terms as follows

8y^2 (y + 2)

Therefore, the factors are 8y^2 and (y + 2)

That is 8y^3 + 16y^2 = 8y^2(y + 2)

Thank you.
