$80 x^{8} y^{7} - 72 x^{5} y^{5} - 24 x^{2} y^{2}$

Step 1

Factor $8 x^{2} y^{2}$ out of $80 x^{8} y^{7}$ .

$8 x^{2} y^{2} (10 x^{6} y^{5}) - 72 x^{5} y^{5} - 24 x^{2} y^{2}$

Step 2

Factor $8 x^{2} y^{2}$ out of $- 72 x^{5} y^{5}$ .

$8 x^{2} y^{2} (10 x^{6} y^{5}) + 8 x^{2} y^{2} (- 9 x^{3} y^{3}) - 24 x^{2} y^{2}$

Step 3

Factor $8 x^{2} y^{2}$ out of $- 24 x^{2} y^{2}$ .

$8 x^{2} y^{2} (10 x^{6} y^{5}) + 8 x^{2} y^{2} (- 9 x^{3} y^{3}) + 8 x^{2} y^{2} (- 3)$

Step 4

Factor $8 x^{2} y^{2}$ out of $8 x^{2} y^{2} (10 x^{6} y^{5}) + 8 x^{2} y^{2} (- 9 x^{3} y^{3})$ .

$8 x^{2} y^{2} (10 x^{6} y^{5} - 9 x^{3} y^{3}) + 8 x^{2} y^{2} (- 3)$

Step 5

Factor $8 x^{2} y^{2}$ out of $8 x^{2} y^{2} (10 x^{6} y^{5} - 9 x^{3} y^{3}) + 8 x^{2} y^{2} (- 3)$ .

$8 x^{2} y^{2} (10 x^{6} y^{5} - 9 x^{3} y^{3} - 3)$
