Answer:


(x^2)/(3) - (x)/(3) - 44 =((x -12)(x+ 11))/(3)

Explanation:

Given


(x^2)/(3) - (x)/(3) - 44

Required

Solve

Take LCM


(x^2 - x - 132)/(3)

Expand


(x^2 +11 x -12x- 132)/(3)

Factorize:


(x(x+11) -12(x+ 11))/(3)


((x -12)(x+ 11))/(3)

Hence:


(x^2)/(3) - (x)/(3) - 44 =((x -12)(x+ 11))/(3)
