Factoring Polynomials: GCF

Question 4 • 26MATH_Recovery_Alg1B22

What is the factored form of the polynomial 27x2y – 43xy2?

Answer

xy(27x – 43y)

x2y2(27 – 43)

3xy(9x – 17y)

3x2y(9 – 14y)

Both terms share a greatest common factor of xy. Factoring it out gives 27x²y − 43xy² = xy(27x − 43y), which is choice A.
