When the polynomials first term is greater than one this is how you factor it:
You do all of the same steps as the first example.
1. Then when you rewrite the answer, you put the first term in the original problem, and divide it by the second term after you factored it.
2. Then you simplify the problem.
3. Next, if you have a fraction, then you take the denominator and multiply it by the first term(in the factored out problem)
4. That is your answer.
