6x+36
You need to find a common divisor of both numbers( 6 and 36). In this case 6 is of course divisible by 6 and 36 is also divisible by 6. So you divide 6x by 6 we are left with an x and if you divide 36 by 6 we are left with 6. So factored is: x+6

Well you cant really solve that because it doesnt equal anything, however, you can factor it. In factored form it would be 6(x+6). If the equation was 6x+36=0 then you subtract 36 on both sides and get 6x=-36. Then you divide by 6 and x=-1

To factor the expression 6 x + 36 , identify the common factor, which is 6. Factoring out 6 yields the final expression 6 ( x + 6 ) . This shows that the expression can be represented as the product of 6 and the binomial ( x + 6 ) .
