Question

Factor the equation 3x^2y^2-15xy^2

Answer 1

3xy²(x - 5)

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation: 3x²y²-15xy²

x is common to both expression, we factorise it:

x(3xy² - 15y²)

y² is common to both expression, we factorise it:

xy²(3x - 15)

3 is common to both expression, we factorise it:

3xy²(x - 5)
