Answer:

(x-1)(8x-3)

Explanation:


8x^2 - 3x -8x + 3

To find the possible dimension we need to factor the given area

the first parenthesis is length and second parenthesis is width

LEts factor
8x^2 - 3x -8x + 3

We use grouping method


(8x^2 - 3x)+(-8x + 3)

Take out GCf from each group


x(8x- 3)-1(8x -3)

(x-1)(8x-3)
