GCF stands for greatest common factor. Find the GCF of the following:

12. Example 1: Factor the following
Factoring Method 1: GCF
When we factor, we want two linear terms (no x squared). Sometimes, all we need to do it take out a GCF.
Example 1: Factor the following

15. Factoring Method 2: Factor by grouping
Works when there are 4 terms in the polynomial in descending degree order.
Split the polynomial into two sets of two terms
Factor each set separately (factor out GCF)
Factor out common polynomial
