Factories the expressions-
3ax – 6ay – 8by + 4bx
In the given expression
Check weather there is any common factors for all terms;
None;
Regrouping the 1st 2 terms we have,
3ax – 6ay= 3a[x - 2y] -------eq 1
Regrouping the last 2 terms we have,
-8by + 4bx = 4b[x – 2y] -------eq 2
Combining eq 1 and 2
3ax – 6ay – 8by + 4bx = 3a[x - 2y] + 4b[x – 2y]
= [x – 2y][3a + 4b]
Hence the factors of[3ax – 6ay – 8by + 4bx] are [x – 2y] and [3a + 4b]
