Question

What is the factorisation of \[ 2m^{2} - 5m \]?

विकल्प

• \( 2m(m - 5) \)

• \( (2m - 5)(m + 1) \)

• \( m(2m - 5) \)

• \( m(2m + 5) \)

Answer 1

Both terms contain the common factor \( m \): \[ 2m^{2} - 5m = m(2m - 5) \]. Only the common factor is taken out, leaving the linear factor \( (2m - 5) \).
