Question 61964
The given expression is: 


405x<sup>8</sup> + 90x<sup>7</sup>y + 5x<sup>6</sup>y<sup>2</sup> 


Taking 5x<sup>6</sup> as a common factor throughout the above expression, we get: 


5x<sup>6</sup>(81x<sup>2</sup> + 18xy + y<sup>2</sup>)


The above step can be kept as it is or further simplified as: 


5x<sup>6</sup>[81x<sup>2</sup> + y(18x + y)]
