Question

Factor 24 j − 16 24j−1624, j, minus, 16 to identify the equivalent expressions.

Answer 1

Answer:

8(3j-2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the expression: 24j−16

We are required to factor the expression.

The GCD of 24 and 16 is 8. We therefore divide both terms of the expression by 8.

$8(\dfrac{24j}{8}-\dfrac{16}{8})\\\\=8(3j-2)$

An equivalent expression therefore is: 8(3j-2)
