Hi,

Re:  TY

a%5E4b%5E1+%2B+a%5E2b%5E3+=+a%5E2a%5E2b+%2B+a%5E2b%5E2b%5E1  | Note: +x%5E%28m%2Bn%29+=+%28+x%5Em+%29%28+x%5En+%29+ 

then factored out common terms a^2b^1 to get a%5E2b%28a%5E2+%2B+b%5E2%29

If You meant:

a^4b + a^2b^3    |note the use of the ^ (uppercase 6)

a%5E2b%28a%5E2+%2B+b%5E2%29
