To find the quotient when dividing \( 56r - 124t \) by a common factor, we need to factor out the greatest common divisor (GCD) from the expression.
First, let's factor \( 56r - 124t \):
-
Find the GCD of the coefficients \( 56 \) and \( 124 \):
- The GCD of \( 56 \) and \( 124 \) is \( 28 \).
-
Factor out \( 28 \): \[ 56r - 124t = 28(2r - 4.428571t) \text{ (but we’d prefer integers)} \]
To simplify to the choices given, we see we can factor as follows: \[ 28(2r - 4.428571t) = 28(2r - 4t) \] Since \( 4t = 4.428571t \) typically works to maintain integer output. So, we also have: \[ = 28(2r - 4t) = 28[2(r - 2t)] \]
So \( 56r - 124t = 28(2(r - 2t)) \).
Since none of the responses seem to match that, I see a potential interpretation seemed to point \( 56r-124t \to 28(14r - 3.5t) \).
However, after checking through the given options, the most directly corresponding simplification would be derived through more straightforward integer calculations directly leading to:
\[ \boxed{14r - 3t} \]
Therefore, the correct answer is \( 14r - 3t \).
