Simplify:
3Q%2B3P%2BQR%2BPR%29 You can factor this expression by "grouping" as shown below:
highlight_green%28%283Q%2B3P%29%29%2Bhighlight%28%28QR%2BPR%29%29 Now factor a 3 from the first group and an R from the second group.
3%28Q%2BP%29%2BR%28Q%2BP%29 Finally, factor the common (Q+P) from each term.
