<h2>Problem:</h2>

Describe how you would factor.

\tt{ {x}^{2}  - 10x + 24}

<h2>Let's Solve it!</h2>

To factorize \tt{ {a}^{2} + bx + c = 0 }we split \tt{"ac"}into two factors, whose sum is b. In polynomial \tt{ {x}^{2}  - 10x + 24}, the product is 24 and hence such factors would be -6 and -4. Hence splitting middle term this way.

<h3>We get this:</h3>

\quad\tt{ {x}^{2}  - 10x + 24 =  {x}^{2}  - 6x - 4x + 24.i.e}

\quad\tt{ x(x - 6) - 4(x - 6)} \:  \: or

\quad\quad\quad\quad\tt{ (x - 6)(x - 4)}

<h3>Hence, The answer is,</h3>

\quad\quad\quad\quad \boxed{\tt{  \color{green}(x - 6)(x - 4)}}
