factor out the gcf​

5x(x+1)−(x+1)5x(x+1)-(x+1)

Since 5x2,4x,−15x2,4x,-1 contain both numbers and variables, there are two steps to find the GCF (HCF). Find GCF for the numeric part then find GCF for the variable part.

Steps to find the GCF for 5x2,4x,−15x2,4x,-1:

1. Find the GCF for the numerical part 5,4,−15,4,-1

2. Find the GCF for the variable part x2,x1x2,x1

3. Multiply the values together
