Answer:
The factor form of given expression 12x-8 is 4(3x-2).
Step-by-step explanation:
The given expression is
[tex]12x-8[/tex]
To factories the above expression, we need to find the GCF of all the terms and then take it common.
The factor form of each term are
[tex]12x=2\times 2\times 3\times x[/tex]
[tex]8=2\times 2\times 2[/tex]
The common factors are 2 and 2. So, the GCF of both terms is
[tex]GCF=2\times 2[/tex]
[tex]12x-8=4\times 3x-4\times 2[/tex]
By taking out GCF , we get
[tex]12x-8=4(3x-2)[/tex]
Therefore the factor form of given expression 12x-8 is 4(3x-2).
