Answer:

[tex]\boxed{\sf{4(5x+3y-7)}}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

It is necessary to find the factors and solve them using their expressions in order to solve this problem.

20x+12y-28

7*4=28

3*4=12

5*4=20

Rewrite the problem down.

5*4x+3*4y+7*4

Solve.

Common term of 4.

4(5x+3y-7)

  • Therefore, the final answer is 4(5x+3y-7).

I hope this helps you! Let me know if my answer is wrong or not.

hello!

[tex]========================================[/tex]

In order to factor this expression, we should factor out the common term (divide all terms in the polynomial by the common term)

In this case, the common term is

4

Note:- Usually, we factor out the G.C.F. (Greatest Common Factor)

So here, the G.C.F. is 4.

Why 4? Because in this trinomial (a polynomial with 3 terms) all 3 terms are divisible by 4.

So divide all the terms

5x

3y

-7

Put 4 outside the parentheses:

4(5x+3y-7)

Is the trinomial in its simplest form? Sure!

Hence, we are done! :)
