Answer:
9c^3d^2(6d^2+c)

Explanation:

Given expression :
54c^3d^4+9c^4d^2

We can write the above expression as


(6*9)c^3d^((2+2))+9c^((3+1))d^2


=(6*9)c^3d^2d^2+9c^3c^1d^2

We can see the greatest common factor of both the terms =
9c^3d^2

Taking the greatest common factor outside , we get


9c^3d^2(6d^2+c)

Hence, the factorize form of given expression is given by:-


54c^3d^4+9c^4d^2=9c^3d^2(6d^2+c)
