When Factoring, we must first always check for a GCF. In this case, there is no GCF

katrinakaif · Answer

Therefore: 
a^2 + bx + c 

We have to multiply a and c, and in this case, it would be 6 x 7 = 42

Sorry Yugo I mean "What goes into 42 and adds to 23?"

katrinakaif · Answer

42 = 21 x 2 
23 = 21 + 2

katrinakaif · Answer

21 and 2 are your factors. Now in order to do this, lets go back: 
6x^2 + 23x + 7 
(6x^2 +21x) (2x + 7) 
3x (2x + 7) 1 (2x + 7) 
(3x + 1) (2x + 7) and that is your final answer
