Question

I need help on this :)

Answer 1

12(2+7)
because 12(2) =24 and 12(7)=84

Answer 2

The greatest factor that 24 and 84 share is 12, so the GCF is 12.

We can use the distributive property to distribute the GCF to the remaining factors of the expression.

24 + 84
12(2 + 7)

This new factored expression is equal to the original.

The answer is D.
