Answer:
4 (3 - x)
Step-by-step explanation:
Take the common factor 4 out.
[tex]4([/tex]
Then divide the numbers inside the expression with the common factor
[tex]4( \frac{ - 4x}{4} + \frac{12}{4})[/tex]
[tex]4( - x + 3)[/tex]
You can rewrite it as:
[tex]4(3 - x)[/tex]
Hope it helps!
Answer: 4(-x+3)
Step-by-step explanation:
Hii, do you need to factor the expression -4x+12? No problem! (:
Note that both -4x and 12 have something in common. This "something" is known as the greatest common factor, or g.c.f.
The g.c.f. of -4x+12 is 4.
To factor it out, we first need to divide -4x+12 by 4.
-x+3 is what we obtain
Next, we put parentheses around -x+3
(-x+3) is what we obtain
Finally, we put 4 outside the parentheses
4(-x+3)
