Factors are the building blocks of multiplication. They are the numbers that you can multiply together to produce another number: 2 and 10 are factors of 20, as are 4 and 5 and 1 and 20. To factor a number is to rewrite it as a product. 20 = 4 • 5.
Likewise to factor a polynomial, you rewrite it as a product. Just as any integer can be written as the product of factors, so too can any monomial or polynomial be expressed as a product of factors. Factoring is very helpful in simplifying and solving equations using polynomials.
A prime factor is similar to a prime number—it has only itself and 1 as factors. The process of breaking a number down into its prime factors is called prime factorization.
Answer: 3x-2=4
Steps:
3x-2=4
3x=(4+2)

x=2
I didn't really understand the problem much, but I'm pretty sure this is what you're looking for.
Also, an equation is the problem with an equal sign.
Answer: 16
Step-by-step: | 10+(-6)|
It is 10+6
Answer:
The are 28 math majors in the class.
Step-by-step explanation:
We can solve this question using a rule of three.
The ratio of math majors to non math majors is 4 to 9
This means that 4+9 = 13 students, 4 are math majors.
The class has 91 students. How many are math majors?
13 students - 4 math majors
91 students - x math majors
The are 28 math majors in the class.
