Question

Factor the expression 24 - 18y

Answer 1

6(4-3y). That's atleast what I got from the Photo Math, the mobile app

Answer 2

`24-18y=6(4-3y)`

Explanation:

The given expression is

`24-18y`

To factor this expression, we just have to extract the common factor both number, which is 6, if we divide 24/6=4 and 18/6=3. So, the factorization would be

`24-18y=6(4-3y)`

Remember that the common factor between numbers is the least common multiple of both numbers, in this case the least one is 6.
