(a + b)(r + s)
The grouping of the factors of w^2 + 30w + 81 (a perfect square) is (w + 27) and (w + 3)3 is a prime factor of 27, 30 and 81 but without two terms to compare, there won't be a GCF (not gfc)
ex: 2x2 + 6bx + 5x + 15b Group 1st 2 terms and last 2 terms. Factor separately. = (2x2 + 6bx) + (5x + 15b) Factor using gcf = 2x(x + 3b) + 5(x + 3b) notice the parenthesis are the same = (2x + 5)(x + 3b)

To factor the polynomial x^3 - 2x^2 - 3x, we first need to find its roots. We can do this by using synthetic division or factoring by grouping. Once we find a root, we can then factor out the corresponding linear factor and apply the remaining steps of long division or factoring by grouping to obtain the remaining quadratic factor.

If there are 4 or more terms in a problem, and none are like terms.
Do in this order. 1. All, find the gfc 2. Binomial, factor as difference of squares, sum of cubes, difference of cubes. 3. Trinomial, factor as a quadratic. 4. 4 or more terms, factor by grouping.
True Observe the following: 5x + 5y + 3z = 5(x + y) + 3z The first two terms could be factored because they shared a common factor of 5, but the third term did not -- not all terms need to share a common factor to use the grouping method.
