Factor out the largest possible common factor.
-$$p q ( p - 13 ) + ( p - 13 )$$
A) $p q ( p - 13 )$
B) $( \mathrm { p } - 13 ) ( \mathrm { pq } + 1 )$
C) $( p - 13 ) ( p q - 1 )$
D) $\left( p ^ { 2 } q - 13 p q \right) + ( p - 13 )$

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The largest common factor in both terms is $(p - 13)$, so factoring it out gives $(p - 13)(pq + 1)$.

Factor Out the Largest Possible Common Factor pq(p−13)+(p−13)p q ( p - 13 ) + ( p - 13 )pq(p−13)+(p−13)

Factor Out the Largest Possible Common Factor $p q ( p - 13 ) + ( p - 13 )$
