Question
2x + 15yz + 6y + 5xz
2x + 15yz + 6y + 5xz
2x + 5xz + 6y + 15yz
5xz + 2x + 15yz + 6y
(5xz + 2x) + (15yz + 6y)
x(5z + 2) + 3y(5z + 2)
since x and 3y both have the same (5z + 2), you can group them to get
(x + 3y)(5z + 2)
Since all of them are postive values, you can rearrange them however you want, as long as the sign remains the same.
