In order to factor this expression, you need to factor out the common terms. You can factor out 6b, since 6 is divisible by all of the terms in the expression, and b, because b is present in each of the terms. So, once you factor 6b out, you will have:

6b(12ab - 7c + 4a). This is the furthest you can factor, so this is your fully factored expression.
