Question

20) Use the distributive property to factor the expression. 10xz − 20yz A) z(10x − 20y) B) 10(xz − 2yz) C) 10z(x − 2y) D) xyz(10 − 20)

Answer 1

The correct answer is C) 10z(x − 2y)

Explanation:

To find this, we look for the greatest common factor of those two numbers. Each can be divided by 10 and each have a z. So we divide each term by 10z and put that on the outside of the parenthesis.
