Factor by grouping:

\n" ); document.write( " $\"highlight_green%28x%5E3%2B3x%5E2%29%2Bhighlight_green%288x%2B24%29\"$
\n" ); document.write( "From the first group factor $\"x%5E2\"$ and from the second group factor $\"8\"$ .
\n" ); document.write( " $\"x%5E2%28x%2B3%29%2B8%28x%2B3%29\"$ Now factor the common factor $\"%28x%2B3%29\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"highlight%28%28x%2B3%29%28x%5E2%2B8%29%29\"$ \n" ); document.write( "
