ANSWER

The fully factored form is


(x - 6y)(x - 4y)

Step-by-step explanation

The given expression is


{x}^(2) - 10xy + 24 {y}^(2)

We need to split the middle term to obtain


{x}^(2) - 4xy - 6xy + 24 {y}^(2)

We factor to obtain,


x(x - 4y) - 6y(x -4 y)

We factor further to obtain,


(x - 6y)(x - 4y)
