Answer:
6(8+3x)
Step-by-step explanation:
The given expression is
[tex]48+18x[/tex]
We need to write an equivalent expression for the given expression.
Factor form of 48 and 18x are
[tex]48=2\times 2\times 2\times 2\times 3[/tex]
[tex]18x=2\times 3\times 3\times x[/tex]
The greatest common factor of 48 and 18x is
[tex]GCF(48,18x)=2\times 3=6[/tex]
Factor out the GCF in given expression.
[tex]48+18x=6(8+3x)[/tex]
Therefore, the expression 6(8+3x) is an equivalent expression for the given expression.
