Given:

The expression is


3ab^2+15a^2b^3+21a^3b^2

To find:

The factor form of the given expression.

Solution:

We have,


3ab^2+15a^2b^3+21a^3b^2

Taking out the common factors, we get


3ab^2(1+5ab+7a^2)

It is clear that
(1+5ab+7a^2) cannot be factories further.

Therefore, the factorized form of the given expression is
3ab^2(1+5ab+7a^2).
