Question

factor out the greatest common factor. if the greatest common factor is 1, just retype the polynomial.
40h^5 - 10h

Explanation:

Step1: Find GCF of coefficients and variables

For coefficients 40 and 10, GCF is 10. For variables \( h^3 \) and \( h \), GCF is \( h \). So GCF is \( 10h \).

Step2: Factor out GCF

Divide each term by \( 10h \): \( \frac{40h^3}{10h} - \frac{10h}{10h} = 4h^2 - 1 \). Then factor out \( 10h \): \( 10h(4h^2 - 1) \).

Answer:

\( 10h(4h^2 - 1) \)
