Factor

8m³-18m

im so confused

8m³ - 18m

When you factor this equation, you need to find the common number or variable in the two terms.

8 and 18 can be divide by 2.

8 : 2 = 4

18 : 2 = 9

2 (4m³ - 9m)

You will notice that both terms have the variable m. We can remove that.

2m (4m²-9) This is the factor of 8m³-18m
