The correct Answer is:
To factorise the expression \(2x(a - b) + 3y(5a - 5b) + 4z(2b - 2a)\), we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Rewrite the expression First, let's rewrite the expression clearly: \[ 2x(a - b) + 3y(5a - 5b) + 4z(2b - 2a) \] ### Step 2: Factor out common factors from each term In the second term \(3y(5a - 5b)\), we can factor out \(5\): \[ 3y(5a - 5b) = 3y \cdot 5(a - b) = 15y(a - b) \] In the third term \(4z(2b - 2a)\), we can factor out \(2\) and also rearrange the terms: \[ 4z(2b - 2a) = 4z \cdot 2(b - a) = -8z(a - b) \] (Note: \(b - a\) can be rewritten as \(-(a - b)\)) ### Step 3: Rewrite the expression with factored terms Now, substituting these factored forms back into the expression, we have: \[ 2x(a - b) + 15y(a - b) - 8z(a - b) \] ### Step 4: Factor out the common factor \((a - b)\) Now we can see that \((a - b)\) is a common factor in all three terms: \[ (a - b)(2x + 15y - 8z) \] ### Final Answer Thus, the factorised form of the expression is: \[ (a - b)(2x + 15y - 8z) \] ---
