Factor 4x^2y+20x^3y^4-16xy

$4 x^{2} y + 20 x^{3} y^{4} - 16 x y$

Step 1

Factor $4 x y$ out of $4 x^{2} y$ .

$4 x y (x) + 20 x^{3} y^{4} - 16 x y$

Step 2

Factor $4 x y$ out of $20 x^{3} y^{4}$ .

$4 x y (x) + 4 x y (5 x^{2} y^{3}) - 16 x y$

Step 3

Factor $4 x y$ out of $- 16 x y$ .

$4 x y (x) + 4 x y (5 x^{2} y^{3}) + 4 x y (- 4)$

Step 4

Factor $4 x y$ out of $4 x y (x) + 4 x y (5 x^{2} y^{3})$ .

$4 x y (x + 5 x^{2} y^{3}) + 4 x y (- 4)$

Step 5

Factor $4 x y$ out of $4 x y (x + 5 x^{2} y^{3}) + 4 x y (- 4)$ .

$4 x y (x + 5 x^{2} y^{3} - 4)$
