Solution - Factoring multivariable polynomials

3yz(y+2z)(y3z)
3yz*(y+2z)*(y-3z)

Step by Step Solution

Step  1  :

Equation at the end of step  1  :

  (((3•(y3))•z)-((3•(y2))•(z2)))-(2•32yz3)

Step  2  :

Equation at the end of step  2  :

  (((3•(y3))•z)-(3y2•z2))-(2•32yz3)

Step  3  :

Equation at the end of step  3  :

  ((3y3 • z) -  3y2z2) -  (2•32yz3)

Step  4  :

Step  5  :

Pulling out like terms :

 5.1     Pull out like factors :

   3y3z - 3y2z2 - 18yz3  =   3yz • (y2 - yz - 6z2) 

Trying to factor a multi variable polynomial :

 5.2    Factoring    y2 - yz - 6z2 

Try to factor this multi-variable trinomial using trial and error 

 
Found a factorization  :  (y + 2z)•(y - 3z)
