Q. Factor.
- Identify Common Factor: Look for a common factor in all terms.Check if there is a greatest common factor (GCF) that can be factored out from all terms of the polynomial .The GCF of , , , and is , so there is no common factor to factor out from all terms.
- Group Terms: Group terms to facilitate factoring by grouping.Group the first two terms together and the last two terms together: + .
- Factor Out GCF: Factor out the GCF from each group.From the first group , factor out , and from the second group , factor out ..
- Factor Out Common Binomial: Factor out the common binomial factor.Now that we have a common binomial factor , we can factor it out..
