Use the commutative property to rearrange the terms so that each pair has a common factor. 2. Factor out the GCF in both groups. 3. If the binomials in parenthesis match, factor it out. 4. Is either of the binomials a 'difference of squares,' or 'difference of cubes,' or 'sum of cubes'? Yes Factor as 'difference of two squares', Factor out the GCF most common GCF ()() Fill in the parenthesis and check the middle term 'magic square' or 'bottoms up', odd exponent a multiple of 3? No, What is middle sign? positive done, 1. Use the commutative property to rearrange the terms so that each pair has a common factor. 2. Factor out the GCF in both groups. 3.
