Factor 12p+27.
Write your answer as a product with a whole number greater than 1.

The expression \( 12p + 27 \) can be factored by finding the greatest common factor (GCF) of the terms. 

- The GCF of 12 and 27 is 3.
  
Thus, we can factor out 3 from both terms:

\[
12p + 27 = 3(4p + 9)
\]

The factored form is \( 3(4p + 9) \).
