Math Problem Statement

Factor. Check by multiplying. 14x + 7

Solution

The expression provided is 14x+714x + 7. To factor this expression, we need to find the greatest common factor (GCF) of the terms.

Step 1: Identify the GCF

The GCF of 14 and 7 is 7.

Step 2: Factor out the GCF

We factor out 7 from both terms: 14x+7=7(2x+1)14x + 7 = 7(2x + 1)

Step 3: Check by Multiplying

To verify, multiply the factored expression: [
