Water drank by the hiker = 1/2
Water drank by each of his friends = ?
Process
1.- Calculate the water that he gave to his friends
Water gave to his friends = 1 - 1/2

Let the existing no. of video games she had be x,
then
(3+x)+2x+5
He can count and there is 6.5 blocks between his house and the park
The idea is to pair up the terms, factor each sub-group, and then pull out the overall GCF to fully factor.
x^3+5x^2-6x-30
(x^3+5x^2)+(-6x-30)
x^2(x+5)+(-6x-30)
x^2(x+5)-6(x+5)
(x^2-6)(x+5)
-------------
Answer: (x^2-6)(x+5)
