GCF: Monomials To find the GCF of two monomials: • Find the GCF of the coefficients • For each common, the GCF is the common variable with the lower degree • Combine the GCF of the coefficients and the variables together to make one term
GCF Examples: 8-1 Study Guide (even problems) Classwork: 8 – 16 (EVEN)
Factor Polynomials: GCF To factor polynomials: • Find the GCF of all terms in the polynmial • Use the distributive property to undistribute GCF • Factor the remaining expression (if possible)
Factor Polynomials: Factor by Grouping To factor a polynomial by grouping (4 or 6 terms) • GCF Factor the first two (three) terms • GCF factor the last two (three) terms • If there is a common factor between them, factor it (undistribute) Ex: 6ax + 3ay + 2bx + by
