Respuesta :

Answer:

(C)7b

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the expression:

[tex]\dfrac{7}{3}ab-\dfrac{7}{6}b[/tex]

Let us factor the expression:

[tex]=\dfrac{7b}{3}\left(a-\dfrac{1}{2}\right)[/tex]

Since we need the greatest common factor, we can rewrite the expression as:

[tex]7b\left(\dfrac{1}{3}a-\dfrac{1}{6}\right)[/tex]

Therefore, the greatest common factor is 7b.

The correct option is C.
