8x(c-d)(2x-y)

Step-by-step explanation


16x^2c+8xyd-16x^2d-8xyc

Step 1

factorize 8x


\begin{gathered} 8x((16x^2c+8xyd-16x^2d-8xyc)/(8x)) \\ 8x(2xc+yd-2xd-yc) \end{gathered}

group the terms and reorder


\begin{gathered} 8x(2x(-d+c)-y(-d+c) \\ 8x(-d+c)(2x-y) \\ -8x(-c+d)(2x-y) \\ 8x(c-d)(2x-y) \end{gathered}

I hope this helps you
