x^2 - 5x + 6
I dont need the answer, I have done the steps and gotten to x(x-2)-3(x-2)
I know the answer is (x-2)(x-3)
How do you get (x-2)(x-3) from x(x-2)-3(x-2) ?

(x-2)(x-3)

                      First, we think of two numbers such that

     If we multiply them, we'll get 6

      If we add them, we'll get -5

These numbers are -2 and -3.

Write them here:

(x-2)(x-3)

Now, how do we get (x-2)(x-3) from x(x-2)-3(x-2)?

Notice that (x-2) is the common term, so we factor it out:

(x-2)

And now, we write the other two terms that are left in the parentheses:

(And the terms left are x and -3)

(x-2)(x-3)

Notice that we ended up with the same answer.

Good luck.
