Factorise
18p+6
please im so bad

Hey there! :-)

18p+6

Factorising  is the opposite of distributing.

This is the Distributive Property:

a(b+c)=ab+ac

This is factorisation:

ab+ac=a(b+c)

We factor out the common term.

Can you see that both 18 and 6 are divisible by 6?

We move 6 outside the parentheses:

6(3p+1)

Therefore, that's the answer. Use the comment section to clarify your doubts.
