Factor 4y-20+xy-5x

$4 y - 20 + x y - 5 x$

Step 1

Factor out the greatest common factor from each group.

Group the first two terms and the last two terms.

$(4 y - 20) + x y - 5 x$

Factor out the greatest common factor (GCF) from each group.

$4 (y - 5) + x (y - 5)$

Step 2

Factor the polynomial by factoring out the greatest common factor, $y - 5$ .

$(y - 5) (4 + x)$
