Factor 16x^3-12x^2+4x

Well, you need to find a common factor first. Do you know how to do that?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

4x

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Very good! Now just divide every term by 4x and you'll get the answer.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

for example \[\frac{16x^3}{4x}=4x^2\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

The first factor will be 4x and the other one will be the outcome of the divisions. Can you do it by yourself?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

4x(4x^2-3x+1)

Great! You got it!
