Answer:

4 is the largest number that is common to both 32 and 44.  Factoring it out looks like this: 4(8 + 11) = 4(8 + 11).  That's weird to me but all textbooks begin that process just that same way.

Step-by-step explanation:

Greatest common factor of 32 and 44 is 4:

32/4 = 8

44/4 = 11

Factor 4 out of the equation 32 + 44 =

The factored form would be 4(8 + 11)
