Answer:
see explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
(a)
Given
2k - 6k² + 4k³ ← factor out 2k from each term
= 2k(1 - 3k + 2k²)
To factor the quadratic
Consider the factors of the product of the constant term ( 1) and the coefficient of the k² term (+ 2) which sum to give the coefficient of the k- term (- 3)
The factors are - 1 and - 2
Use these factors to split the k- term
1 - k - 2k + 2k² ( factor the first/second and third/fourth terms )
1(1 - k) - 2k(1 - k) ← factor out (1 - k) from each term
= (1 - k)(1 - 2k)
1 - 3k + 2k² = (1 - k)(1 - 2k) and
2k - 6k² + 4k³ = 2k(1 - k)(1 - 2k)
(b)
Given
2ax - 4ay + 3bx - 6by ( factor the first/second and third/fourth terms )
= 2a(x - 2y) + 3b(x - 2y) ← factor out (x - 2y) from each term
= (x - 2y)(2a + 3b)

We have to find the GCD between 10, 16 and 4 and between x^5, x^4 and x^2
GCD (10,16,4) = 2
GCD (x^5,x^4,x^2) = x^2
So we divide all terms for 2x^2
Final result: 2x^2(5x^3-8x^2+2)
