Question

Which of the following expressions has three factors?

5(p+6)(q-4)
2(7-b)
(d-3)(c+9)
x+y-4

Answer 1

5 (p+6) (q−4)

'

Answer 2

5(p + 6)(q - 4)

Explanation:

Factors are a set of numbers, alphabets or both that when multiplied would give a certain expression.

The expression with three factors is: 5(p + 6)(q - 4)

So that;

5(p + 6)(q - 4) = (5p + 30)(q - 4)

Then,

(5p + 30)(q - 4) = 5pq - 20p + 30q - 120

Therefore, the factorization of 5pq - 20p + 30q - 120 gives the factors; 5(p + 6)(q - 4).
