Pulling out like terms

7.1 Pull out like factors :

8x7y2 + 18x5y3 + 6x2y4 = 2x2y2 • (4x5 + 9x3y + 3y2)

Trying to factor a multi variable polynomial :

7.2 Factoring 4x5 + 9x3y + 3y2

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

Factorization fails

Final result :
2x2y2 • (4x5 + 9x3y + 3y2)
