$- 16 x^{4} - 32 x^{3} - 80 x^{2}$

Step 1

Factor $- 16 x^{2}$ out of $- 16 x^{4}$ .

$- 16 x^{2} (x^{2}) - 32 x^{3} - 80 x^{2}$

Step 2

Factor $- 16 x^{2}$ out of $- 32 x^{3}$ .

$- 16 x^{2} (x^{2}) - 16 x^{2} (2 x) - 80 x^{2}$

Step 3

Factor $- 16 x^{2}$ out of $- 80 x^{2}$ .

$- 16 x^{2} (x^{2}) - 16 x^{2} (2 x) - 16 x^{2} (5)$

Step 4

Factor $- 16 x^{2}$ out of $- 16 x^{2} (x^{2}) - 16 x^{2} (2 x)$ .

$- 16 x^{2} (x^{2} + 2 x) - 16 x^{2} (5)$

Step 5

Factor $- 16 x^{2}$ out of $- 16 x^{2} (x^{2} + 2 x) - 16 x^{2} (5)$ .

$- 16 x^{2} (x^{2} + 2 x + 5)$
