Factor −27h + 6 using the GCF.

1 answer

To factor −27h + 6 using the greatest common factor (GCF), we first need to find the GCF of the two terms. Both terms have a common factor of 3.

Next, we divide each term by the GCF of 3:

−27h ÷ 3 = -9h
6 ÷ 3 = 2

Now, we rewrite the expression using the GCF and the quotients:

−27h + 6 = 3(-9h + 2)

Therefore, −27h + 6 can be factored as 3(-9h + 2).
