Open in App

Solution

Step 1: We have given expression is ( $6 + 16 k$ )
Now we will Find the factors of $(6), (16 k)$
$6 = 2 \times 3 16 k = 2 \times 2 \times 2 \times 2 \times k$
We can see that the G.C.F of $(6), (16 k)$ is $2$ : :.
Now we will use the GCF to factor the expression
$6 + 16 k = 2 (3) + 2 (8 k) {R e w r i t e t h e e x p r e s s i o n s} = 2 (3 + 8 k) {D i s t r i b u t i v e p r o p e r t y}$
Final Answer: $2 (3 + 8 k)$
