The given expressions are:

&

The first expression can be written as:

Here we take as the highest common factor for the entire expression.

So this implies:

On applying Distributive property to the above expression, we get:

which is nothing but the given expression itself.

----------------------------------------------------------------------

The second expression is:

Here in the above expression, we take as the highest common factor.

Hence, we get:

Applying Distributive property, we get:

Hence, the solution.

------------------------------------------------------------------

Thus, the solution for the given expressions are:
