Question

12 a^2 - 6ab ^2 factorize

Answer 1

12a^2-6ab^2
=6a(2a-b^2)

Answer 2

12a^2 - 6ab^2

= (2^2 * 3a^2)  - (2 * 3ab^2)

= (2 * 2 * 3 * a * a) - (2 * 3 * a * b * b)

= 2 * 2 * 3 * a * a - 2 * 3 * a * b * b

In both sides 2 and 3 and a are common i. 2 * 3 * a  = 6a

6a(2a-b^2).


Hope this helps!
