    (viii) 3x2y3, 10x3y2, 6x2y2z

    Answer :
    (i) 12x = 2 x 2 x 3 x x
    36 = 2 x 2 x 3 x 3
    The common factors are 2, 2, 3.
    And, 2 x 2 x 3 = 12
    (ii) 2y = 2 x y
    22xy = 2 x 11 x x x y
    The common factors are 2, y.
    And, 2 x y = 2y
    (iii) 14pq = 2 x 7 x p x q
    28p2q2 = 2 x 2 x 7 x p x p x q x q
    The common factors are 2, 7, p, q.
    And, 2 x 7 x p x q = 14pq
    (iv) 2x = 2 x x
    3x2 = 3 x x x x
    4 = 2 x 2
    The common factor is 1.
    (v) 6abc = 2 x 3 x a x b x c
    24ab2 = 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x a x b x b
    12a2b = 2 x 2 x 3 x a x a x b
    The common factors are 2, 3, a, b.
    And, 2 x 3 x a x b = 6ab
    (vi) 16x3 = 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x x x x x x
    -4x2 = -1 x 2 x 2 x x x x
    32x = 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x x

    6x2y2z = 2 x 3 x x x x x y x y x z
    The common factors are x, x, y, y.
    And,
    x x x x y x y = x2y2


    Q2 :Factorise the following expressions
    (i) 7x – 42
    (ii) 6p – 12q
    (iii) 7a2 + 14a
    (iv) -16z + 20z3
    (v) 20l2m + 30 alm
    (vi) 5x2y – 15xy2
    (vii) 10a2 – 15b2 + 20c2
    (viii) -4a2 + 4ab – 4 ca
    (ix) x2yz + xy2z + xyz2
    (x) ax2y + bxy2 + cxyz

    Answer :
    (i) 7x = 7 x x
    42 = 2 x 3 x 7
    The common factor is 7.
    ∴ 7x – 42 = (7 x x) – (2 x 3 x 7) = 7 (x – 6)
    (ii) 6p = 2 x 3 x p
    12q = 2 x 2 x 3 x q
    The common factors are 2 and 3.
    ∴ 6p – 12q = (2 x 3 x p) – (2 x 2 x 3 x q)
    = 2 x 3 [p – (2 x q)]
    = 6 (p – 2q)
    (iii) 7a2 = 7 x a x a
    14a = 2 x 7 x a
    The common factors are 7 and a.
    ∴ 7a2 + 14a = (7 x a x a) + (2 x 7 x a)
    = 7 x a [a + 2] = 7a (a + 2)
    (iv) 16z = 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x z
    20z3 = 2 x 2 x 5 x z x z x z
    The common factors are 2, 2, and z.
    ∴ -16z + 20z3 = – (2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x z) + (2 x 2 x 5 x z x z x z)
    = (2 x 2 x z) [- (2 x 2) + (5 x z x z)]
    = 4z (- 4 + 5z2)
    (v) 20l2m = 2 x 2 x 5 x l x l x m
    30alm = 2 x 3 x 5 x a x l x m
    The common factors are 2, 5, l, and m.
    ∴ 20l2m + 30alm = (2 x 2 x 5 x l x l x m) + (2 x 3 x 5 x a x l x m)
    = (2 x 5 x l x m) [(2 x l) + (3 x a)]
    = 10lm (2l + 3a)
    (vi) 5x2y = 5 x x x x x y
    15xy2 = 3 x 5 x x x y x y
    The common factors are 5, x, and y.
    ∴ 5x2y – 15xy2 = (5 x x x x x y) – (3 x 5 x x x y x y)
    = 5 x x x y [x – (3 x y)]
    = 5xy (x – 3y)
    (vii) 10a2 = 2 x 5 x a x a
    15b2 = 3 x 5 x b x b
    20c2 = 2 x 2 x 5 x c x c
    The common factor is 5.
    10a2 – 15b2 + 20c2 = (2 x 5 x a x a) – (3 x 5 x b x b) + (2 x 2 x 5 x c x c)
    = 5 [(2 x a x a) – (3 x b x b) + (2 x 2 x c x c)]
    = 5 (2a2 – 3b2 + 4c2)
    (viii) 4a2 = 2 x 2 x a x a
    4ab = 2 x 2 x a x b
    4ca = 2 x 2 x c x a
    The common factors are 2, 2, and a.
    ∴ -4a2 + 4ab – 4ca = – (2 x 2 x a x a) + (2 x 2 x a x b) – (2 x 2 x c x a)
    = 2 x 2 x a [- (a) + b – c]
    = 4a (-a + b – c)
    (ix) x2yz = x x x x y x z
    xy2z = x x y x y x z
    xyz2 = x x y x z x z
    The common factors are x, y, and z.
    ∴ x2yz + xy2z + xyz2 = (x x x x y x z) + (x x y x y x z) + (x x y x z x z)
    = x x y x z [x + y + z]
    = xyz (x + y + z)
    (x) ax2y = a x x x x x y
    bxy2 = b x x x y x y
    cxyz = c x x x y x z


    Q3 : Factorise
    (i) x2 + xy + 8x + 8y
    (ii) 15xy – 6x + 5y – 2
    (iii) ax + bx – ay – by
    (iv) 15pq + 15 + 9q + 25p
    (v) z – 7 + 7xy – xyz
    Answer :
    (i) x2 + xy + 8x + 8y = x x x + x x y + 8 x x + 8 x y
    = x (x + y) + 8 (x + y)
    = (x + y) (x + 8)
    (ii) 15xy – 6x + 5y – 2 = 3 x 5 x x x y – 3 x 2 x x + 5 x y – 2
    = 3x (5y – 2) + 1 (5y – 2)
    = (5y – 2) (3x + 1)
    (iii) ax + bx – ay – by = a x x + b x x – a x y – b x y
    = x (a + b) – y (a + b)
    = (a + b) (x – y)
    (iv) 15pq + 15 + 9q + 25p = 15pq + 9q + 25p + 15
    = 3 x 5 x p x q + 3 x 3 x q + 5 x 5 x p + 3 x 5
    = 3q (5p + 3) + 5 (5p + 3)
    = (5p + 3) (3q + 5)
    (v) z – 7 + 7xy – xyz = z – x x y x z – 7 + 7 x x x y
    = z (1 – xy) – 7 (1 – xy)
    = (1 – xy) (z – 7)

    (iv) 16x5 – 144x3 = 16x3(x2 – 9)
    = 16 x3 [(x)2 – (3)2]
    = 16 x3(x – 3) (x + 3) [a2 – b2 = (a – b) (a + b)]
    (v) (l + m)2 – (l – m)2 = [(l + m) – (l – m)] [(l + m) + (l – m)]

    (iv) x4 – (x – z)4
    (v) a4 – 2a2b2 + b4

    Answer :
    (i) a4 – b4 = (a2)2 – (b2)2
    = (a2 – b2) (a2 + b2)
    = (a – b) (a + b) (a2 + b2)
    (ii) p4 – 81 = (p2)2 – (9)2
    = (p2 – 9) (p2 + 9)
    = [(p)2 – (3)2] (p2 + 9)
    = (p – 3) (p + 3) (p2 + 9)

    Q5 : Factorise the following expressions
    (i) p2 + 6p + 8
    (ii) q2 – 10q + 21
    (iii) p2 + 6p – 16

    Answer :
    (i) p2 + 6p + 8
    It can be observed that, 8 = 4 x 2 and 4 + 2 = 6
    ∴ p2 + 6p + 8 = p2 + 2p + 4p + 8
    = p(p + 2) + 4(p + 2)
    = (p + 2) (p + 4)
    (ii) q2 – 10q + 21
    It can be observed that, 21 = (-7) x (-3) and (-7) + (-3) = – 10
    ∴ q2 – 10q + 21 = q2 – 7q – 3q + 21
    = q(q – 7) – 3(q – 7)
    = (q – 7) (q – 3)
    (iii) p2 + 6p – 16
    It can be observed that, 16 = (-2) x 8 and 8 + (-2) = 6
    p2 + 6p – 16 = p2 + 8p – 2p – 16
    = p(p + 8) – 2(p + 8)
    = (p + 8) (p – 2)

    = 3 × 13 × 2 × y × y × y (5y – 7) (5y + 7)
    26y2(5y + 7) = 2 × 13 × y × y × (5y + 7)
