This does not factor to whole numbers. You need to use the quadratic formula...
-b+-sqrt[b2-4(a)(c)] / 2a
Your equation is this [below]. Identify what a,b and c equals and put it into your quadratic formula.
3m2-88
a=3
b=0
c=-88
when you work this out you get two answers but they are not whole numbers.
your answers are 5.416 an -5.416
