Factor 12y+6

Question

using the GCF.(1 point)

Answer 1

To factor the expression \( 12y + 6 \) using the Greatest Common Factor (GCF), we first identify the GCF of the two terms.

The GCF of \( 12y \) and \( 6 \) is \( 6 \).

Now, we factor \( 6 \) out of the expression:

\[ 12y + 6 = 6(2y + 1) \]

So, the factored form of \( 12y + 6 \) is \( 6(2y + 1) \).
