$24 a b - 8 a^{2} b + 32 a$

Step 1

Reorder $24 a b$ and $- 8 a^{2} b$ .

$- 8 a^{2} b + 24 a b + 32 a$

Step 2

Factor $- 8 a$ out of $- 8 a^{2} b$ .

$- 8 a (a b) + 24 a b + 32 a$

Step 3

Factor $- 8 a$ out of $24 a b$ .

$- 8 a (a b) - 8 a (- 3 b) + 32 a$

Step 4

Factor $- 8 a$ out of $32 a$ .

$- 8 a (a b) - 8 a (- 3 b) - 8 a (- 4)$

Step 5

Factor $- 8 a$ out of $- 8 a (a b) - 8 a (- 3 b)$ .

$- 8 a (a b - 3 b) - 8 a (- 4)$

Step 6

Factor $- 8 a$ out of $- 8 a (a b - 3 b) - 8 a (- 4)$ .

$- 8 a (a b - 3 b - 4)$
