Do you want to factor?\r

\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"3b%5E2-48\" Start with the given expression\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"3%28b%5E2-16%29\" Factor out the GCF \"3\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"3%28b%2B4%29%28b-4%29\" Factor \"b%5E2-16\" to get \"%28b%2B4%29%28b-4%29\" by use of the difference of squares formula\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "So \"3b%5E2-48\" factors \"3%28b%2B4%29%28b-4%29\"\r
