Factor the polynomial using the negative of the greatest common factor.
-$$- 28 a ^ { 2 } b ^ { 3 } + 12 a b$$
A) $4 a b \left( - 7 a b ^ { 2 } + 3 \right)$
B) $- 4 a \left( 7 a b ^ { 3 } - 3 b \right)$
C) $- 4 a b \left( 7 a b ^ { 2 } - 3 \right)$
D) $- 4 a b \left( 7 a b ^ { 2 } + 3 \right)$

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The greatest common factor (GCF) of the terms is $4ab$, and factoring out $-4ab$ from each term gives $-4ab(7ab^2 - 3)$.
