Answer:

6(2g - 1)(2g + 1)

Explanation:

24g² - 6 ← factor out the common factor of 6 from both terms

= 6(4g² - 1) ← 4g² - 1 is a difference of squares and factors in general as

a² - b² = (a - b)(a + b) , then

4g² - 1

= (2g)² - 1²

= (2g - 1)(2g + 1)

then

24g² - 6 = 6(2g - 1)(2g + 1) ← in factored form
