Answer: (w-8)(-4w+3)

Explanation:

Given:

4w(8 − w) + 3(w − 8)

Solution:

You need to make what's inside the parentheses the same so you can take it out as the GCF

let's change the look of (8-w) to look like (w-8)

Start:

8-w >let's make w first, don't forget to carry signs

-w+8 >take out GCF -1 (opposite of distribution)

-1(w-8) >now it looks more like the other parentheis, Subsitiute in

8-w is same as -1(w-8) from above

4w(8 − w) + 3(w − 8) >original question, now substitute

4w(-1)(w-8) + 3(w − 8) > simplify -1

-4w(w-8) + 3(w − 8) >take out w-8 as GCF

(w-8)(-4w+3)
