Start with the given expression

Factor out the GCF of

Now we want to factor the quadratic in the parenthesis. If we ignore the y terms we get:



Which is a quadratic, so lets factor it:
ERROR Algebra::Solver::Engine::invoke_solver_noengine: solver not defined for name 'quadratic_factoring'.
Error occurred executing solver 'quadratic_factoring' .


So if we reintroduce the y terms we get

now if we include the term we get


As always, we can multiply and foil to get again
