Answer 1

To factor the expression \(-27h + 6\) using the greatest common factor (GCF), we first need to identify the GCF of the coefficients \(-27\) and \(6\).

The GCF of \(-27\) and \(6\) is \(3\).

Next, we factor out \(3\) from the expression:

\[ -27h + 6 = 3(-9h + 2) \]

So, the correct factored form is:

\[ 3(-9h + 2) \]

Thus, the correct response is:

3(−9h + 2)
