Hii!

Answer:

3(x-10)

Explanation:

Note that both terms, 3x and -30, have a 3 in common. This is called the greatest common factor, or g.c.f.

The g.c.f. of 3x and -30 is 3. So we divide both 3x and -30 by 3, and obtain

x-10

Put parentheses around x-10

(x-10)

Next, put 3 outside the parentheses

3(x-10)

Hope that this helped! Best wishes.
