The answer after being factored is, -3( 5q^{2}  r^{2} -p-4q)

When we are factoring, all we are doing is finding a GCF and taking it from the expression and dividing it into every term. Let's break our expression into parts first

3p

12q

-15q^{2}  r^{2}

Now, each number is divisible by 3, but since our biggest number is a negative, we will make our GCF -3 instead of 3. So let's divide each part by -3.

3p / -3 =-p

12q/-3=-4q

-15q ^{2}  r^{2} /-3=5q^{2}  r^{2}

Now let's put it together in an expression:

5q^{2}  r^{2} -p-4q

When we factor we always put our factored expression in parenthesis with the term the expression was factored by on the outside like so:


-3(5q^{2} r^{2} -p-4q)

Thank you for the question I hope this helped! Have an amazing day! :D
