You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Factoring by grouping:
\n" ); document.write( "split the equation into 2 parts
\n" ); document.write( "\"8p%5E6-20p%5E4\"
\n" ); document.write( "and
\n" ); document.write( "\"36p%5E3-16p%5E2\"
\n" ); document.write( "Then what you do is take out numbers and variables until the part in the ( ) is as simplified as possible.
\n" ); document.write( "\"8p%5E6-20p%5E4\"
\n" ); document.write( "you can take out a 4 and \"p%5E4\".
\n" ); document.write( "\"4p%5E4%282p%5E2-5%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "do it to both parts
\n" ); document.write( "\"36p%5E3-16p%5E2\"
\n" ); document.write( "you can take out 4 and \"p%5E2\".
\n" ); document.write( "\"4p%5E2%289p-4%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "then add them back together
\n" ); document.write( "\"4p%5E4%282p%5E2-5%29%2B4p%5E2%289p-4%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "That would be your answer
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
