Complete question :
Juan is rewriting the expression 12 d minus 26 c as a product. Which statements about the expression are accurate and relevant to his rewriting the expression? Select two options. The GCF of the numbers in each term in the expression is 2. The GCF of the numbers in each term in the expression is 4. The GCF of the variables in each term in the expression is cd. The factored expression is 2 (6 d minus 13 c). The factored expression is 2 c d (6 minus 13).
Answer:
The GCF of the numbers in each term in the expression is 2.
The factored expression is 2 (6 d minus 13 c).
Explanation:
The two numbers being written are :
12d ; - 26c
Then greatest common factor of the Coefficients is :
Factors of
12 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 12
26 : 1, 2, 13
Hence, the greatest common factor is 2.
Expressing 12d and - 26c as a product :
12d * - 26c
Factorizing :
2(6d - 13c)
