Explanation:

From the equation:

-6u^2 + 3u^4z^2 - (2z^2/u^2)

You need to factor out the common factors as:

z^2 * (3u^4 - 6u^2 - 2/u^2)

Then, you can simplify the expression inside the parentheses.

We have to factor it by finding a common denominator in the equation:

3u^4 - 6u^2 - 2/u^2 = (3u^6 - 6u^4 - 2) / u^2

Then, factor the numerator:

3u^6 - 6u^4 - 2 will be:

3(u^6 - 2u^4 - 2/3)

The simplified expression will be:

z^2 * [3(u^6 - 2u^4 - 2/3)] / u^2

And lastly, you need to distribute the z^2 to have a simplified expression as:

3z^2(u^6 - 2u^4 - 2/3) / u^2
