1. Problem Description
The problem asks to factor the linear expression . We are given four options: , , , and .
2. Solution Steps
We need to find the greatest common factor (GCF) of the terms and .
The factors of 14 are 1, 2, 7, and
1
4. The factors of 35 are 1, 5, 7, and
3
5. The GCF of 14 and 35 is
7. Both terms have the variable $m$. Therefore, the GCF of $14m$ and $35mn$ is $7m$.
Now, we can factor out from the expression:
3. Final Answer
The factored expression is .
