You can use the RATIONAL ROOT THEOREM twice, and along with POLYNOMIAL LONG DIVISION,
\n" );
document.write( "you should obtain the factors of polynomial: \"6x%5E4+-+13x%5E3+-+27x%5E2+%2B+40x+-+12\" as: \"highlight_green%28%28x+-+3%29%28x+%2B+2%29%283x+-+2%29%282x+-+1%29%29\", and so:
\n" );
document.write( "\"f%28x%29+=+6x%5E4+-+13x%5E3+-+27x%5E2+%2B+40x+-+12\" becomes: \"f%28x%29+=+%28x+-+3%29%28x+%2B+2%29%283x+-+2%29%282x+-+1%29\", from which the solutions to the equation,
\n" );
document.write( "or the ROOTS of the equation can be obtained. 
\n" );
document.write( "By the way, it's a 4th degree polynomial, not a 6th degree polynomial. Hence, there are 4 ROOTS, or 4 solutions, or 4 zeroes.

document.write( "You can do the check!!
