Given the polynomial to factorize: 63x4 + 81x3 − 72x2
Now:
We have to factorize this polynomial by factoring out the biggest terms out of the polynomial.
Given the polynomial: 63×4+21×3-72×2
factorizing the expression
63x4 + 81x3 − 72x2=9x2(7x2+9x-8)
Now see that:
⇒ \(\begin{aligned}
& \frac{63 x^4}{9 x^2}=7 x^2 \\
& \frac{81 x^3}{9 x^2}=9 x \\
& \frac{72 x^2}{9 x^2}=8
\end{aligned}\)
Here 9×2 is the biggest single term that can be taken out as a factor as it is the greatest term that is a factor of 63x4,81x3,72x2
The polynomial after factoring out the biggest term is as follows: 63x4 + 81x3 − 72x2 = 9x2(7x2+9x−8)

Given the polynomial to factorize: 60a2 + 30ab − 90ac
Now:
We have to factorize this polynomial by factoring out the biggest terms out of the polynomial.
Given the polynomial 60a2+30ab-90ac
factorizing the expression:
