Question

Factor please. m^2 - 64n^2

Answer 1

Answer:

(m - 8n)(m + 8n)

Step-by-step explanation:

m² - 64n² ← is a difference of squares and factors in general as

a² - b² = (a - b)(a + b) , then

m² - 64n²

= m² - (8n)²

= (m - 8n)(m + 8n)

Answer 2

Answer:

(n - 8n)(m+8n)

Step-by-step explanation:

x² - y² = (x - y)(x + y)

In this situation, the "x" = m and the "y" = 8n

So,

m² - 64n² = (n - 8n)(m+8n)
