Answer to Problem 1E

Solution:

5(2x3)

Explanation of Solution

Given:

The expression is 10x15.

Key concepts:

The greatest common factor of the given terms is the largest factor that all the terms have in common.

Calculation:

Consider the expression 10x15.

The greater common factor between 10 and 15 is 5, and x is not present in the second term. So, 5 is the greatest common factor of the terms 10x and 15.

Therefore, factoring out the greatest common factor we can write the given expression as shown below.

10x15=5(2x3)

Conclusion:

Expression after factoring out the greatest common is 5(2x3) .
