factor 12x^3-4x^2

Solution

factor

12 x^{3} - 4 x^{2}

Solution

4 x^{2} (3 x - 1)

Solution steps

12 x^{3} - 4 x^{2}

Apply exponent rule:

a^{b + c} = a^{b} a^{c}

x^{3} = x x^{2}

= 12 x x^{2} - 4 x^{2}

Rewrite

12

as

4 \cdot 3

Rewrite

4

as

4 \cdot 1

= 4 \cdot 3 x x^{2} - 4 \cdot 1 \cdot x^{2}

Factor out common term

4 x^{2}

= 4 x^{2} (3 x - 1)

Popular Examples

(8x+1)(x-7)>= (2x-3)(4x+5)

(8 x + 1) (x - 7) \geq (2 x - 3) (4 x + 5)

10 m^{2} + 52 m = - 10

(2x+2)/3+(5x+x)/6 =(15+2x)/(12)

\frac{2 x + 2}{3} + \frac{5 x + x}{6} = \frac{15 + 2 x}{12}

simplify 11/15+(-3/4)simplify

\frac{11}{15} + (- \frac{3}{4})

simplify (5^4)/5+4 simplify

\frac{5 ^{4}}{5} + 4
