Explanation:

Step1: Find the GCF of terms

The terms are \(x^{2}\) and \(x\). The GCF of \(x^{2}\) and \(x\) is \(x\).

Step2: Factor out the GCF

Factor out \(x\) from \(x^{2}+x\). Using the distributive property \(ab + ac=a(b + c)\), where \(a = x\), \(b=x\), and \(c = 1\). So \(x^{2}+x=x(x + 1)\)

Answer:

\(x(x + 1)\)
