You can put this solution on YOUR website!
12x%5E6y%5E5 and 4x%5E4y%5E5
...
Both coefficients, 12 and 4, are divisible by 4
Each as multiple x and y variables, so factor out the one with the least of each variable, which is x%5E4 and the full y%5E5
...
4x%5E4y%5E5%283x%5E2%29 and 4x%5E4y%5E5%281%29
