What is one factor of 2x^2-32y^2
serg [7]
Here you have two terms connected by the "subtraction" symbol.

The two coefficients are 2 and 32, and one factor common to both of these is 2.     Thus, <span>2x^2-32y^2 = 2(x^2-16y^2).

You could stop here.  But it'd make more sense to continue, since x^2-16y^2 is easy to factor:

The three factors of </span><span>2x^2-32y^2  are 2, x-4 and x+4</span>
