Best Answer

Because of the way this is written, there are two possibilities in simplifying. Choose the one that applies:

  • a4 - ab4 = a(a3 - b4); here, only the 'b' term is raised in the second term, so a1 is the only thing we can take out.
  • a4 - (ab)4 - a4(1 - b4). Because a4 is a part of both terms, it can be removed from both as well.
