Factor 3x-2

Problem

3*x−2

Solution

1. Identify the terms in the expression, which are 3*x and −2

2. Check for a greatest common factor (GCF) between the coefficients 3 and 2

3. Determine that the only common factor is 1 meaning the expression is already in its simplest form over the integers.

4. Conclude that the expression cannot be factored further using integer coefficients.

Final Answer

3*x−2=3*x−2
