Awesome, yeah, you did a great job on this one! You correctly factored out the greatest common factor to get the value of interest. Great job! :)

Yes Jay,
you did it correctly.
The greatest common factor (GCF) of
15 and 25 is 5. Dividing the 5 out of this
equation 15x + 25 gives 5(3x + 5).
Good job.
