To factor 30+48, first we need to find the greatest common factor (GCF) of both 30 and 48.

The prime factorization of 30 is 2 x 3 x 5, while the prime factorization of 48 is 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 3.

The common factors of 30 and 48 are 2 and 3. Therefore, the GCF of 30 and 48 is 2 x 3 = 6.

Now we can factor 30+48 as follows:

30+48 = 6(5+8)

So, the answer is 6(5+8).
