what is the answer 4d+12e=use the greatest common factor and the distributive property to write equivalent expressions in factored form for the expession

Respuesta :

The given expression is

[tex]4d+12e[/tex]

The greatest common factor is 4 because both terms can be divide by 4 at the same time.

[tex]\frac{4d}{4}+\frac{12e}{4}=d+3e[/tex]

Then, we factor out the greatest common factor to express it in factor form

[tex]4(d+3e)[/tex]
