We have the next expression:


pq\text{ - pr + 6q-6r}

Factorize using factor by grouping.

First, let's find the common terms. The one who is in all terms or majority terms.

In this case, let's use p:


p(q-r)+6q-6r

Factorize the common term 6.


p(q-r)+6(q-r)

Look at the expressions, both are multiply by (q-r), so we can rewrite the expression like this:

Factorize the common term (q-r)


(q-r)(p+6)
