I'm supposed to factor this:
\n" ); document.write( "\"6x%5E4y%5E4z%5E4-24x%5E5y%5E5z%5E3%2B18x%5E3y%5E3z%5E4\"
\n" ); document.write( "Do you plan to?
\n" ); document.write( "Look for the highest exponent of x, y and z, and factor it out. There's a 6 that's common to all 3 terms, too.
\n" ); document.write( "\"6x%5E4y%5E4z%5E4-24x%5E5y%5E5z%5E3%2B18x%5E3y%5E3z%5E4\"
\n" ); document.write( "=\"6x%5E3y%5E3z%5E3%2A%28xyz+-+4x%5E2y%5E2+%2B+3z%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "I think that's it.
\n" ); document.write( "----------------
\n" ); document.write( "If you're unsure, you can do it bit at a time.
\n" ); document.write( "\"6x%5E4y%5E4z%5E4-24x%5E5y%5E5z%5E3%2B18x%5E3y%5E3z%5E4\"
\n" ); document.write( "Remove, say, the 6x
\n" ); document.write( "=\"6x%2A%28x%5E3y%5E4z%5E4+-+4x%5E4y%5E5z%5E3+%2B3+x%5E2y%5E3z%5E4%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "Then you see there's still an x in each term, so you factor out another one.
\n" ); document.write( "=\"6x%5E2%2A%28x%5E2y%5E4z%5E4+-+4x%5E3y%5E5z%5E3+%2B3+xy%5E3z%5E4%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "One more x
\n" ); document.write( "=\"6x%5E3%2A%28xy%5E4z%5E4+-+4x%5E2y%5E5z%5E3+%2B3+y%5E3z%5E4%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "The last term has no x, so we're done with x.
\n" ); document.write( "Do the same for y and z. Going one piece at a time makes it less likely to make an error.\r
