Answer:
- (3x - 1)(4x - 1)
Step-by-step explanation:
Factorise,
= 12x² - 7x + 1 by splitting middle term.
Here, we need two integers such whose, sum is -7 and product is 12.
Clearly such numbers are -4 and -3
Then,
= 12x² - 7x + 1
= 12x² - 4x - 3x + 1
= 4x(3x - 1) - 1(3x - 1)
= (3x - 1)(4x - 1) ans.
