Question

Factorize the following expressions:
(i) 6ab - 12b
(ii) 5xy - 20xz​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

(i) 6ab - 12b

• Write it as:-

= (6×a×b) - (6×2×b)

• Now, take 6 and b as common from both:-

• After taking 6 and b as common we will get this as answer.

→ 6b (a - 2)

(ii) 5xy - 20xz

• Write it as:-

= (5×x×y) - (5×4×x×z)

• Now, take 5 and x as common from both:-

• After taking 5 and x as common we will get this as answer.

→ 5x (y - 4z)

Therefore, the answers are:-

Therefore, the answers are:-(i) 6b (a - 2)

Therefore, the answers are:-(i) 6b (a - 2)(ii) 5x (y - 4z)
