Question

Factorize the following: 1) 16(a-b)³-24(a-b)²

Answer 1

• 16(a - b)³ - 24(a - b)²

■ Taking 8(a - b)² as common,

$\to \bf{}8 {( a - b)}^{2} \: \big [2(a - b) - 3\big] \\ \\ \to \bf{}8 {( a - b)}^{2} \: \big[2a - 2b - 3\big] \\ \\ \small \to \bf \red{8(a - b)(a - b)(2a - 2b - 3)}$

Answer 2

Answer:

8(a - b) (a - b) [2a - 2b - 3]
