Question

How do i factor put the coefficient of the variable
2.6x+23.4

Answer 1

Answer: 2.6(x+9)

Its just 2.6, but put the x in the parenthesis, then divide 23.4 by 2.6 to figure it out.

Answer 2

the coeficient is 2.6 so

2.6x+23.4
if you want to factor out the coeficient then divide the whole thing by 2.6

(2.6x+23.4)/2.6=x+9

2(x+3) means 2 times (x+3)
so the factored out coeficient is
2.6(x+9)
