Question

factor the expression $\frac{5}{3}m + 2$. use $\frac{1}{3}$ as the common factor. $\frac{5}{3}m + 2=square(square m+square)$

Explanation:

Step1: Divide first term by common factor

$\frac{\frac{5}{3}m}{\frac{1}{3}}=\frac{5}{3}m\times\frac{3}{1} = 5m$

Step2: Divide second term by common factor

$\frac{2}{\frac{1}{3}}=2\times3 = 6$

Answer:

$\frac{1}{3}(5m + 6)$
