We must write in factored form the given expression by factoring out the greatest common factor (GCF)(GCF):

8mn3+24m2n38mn^3 + 24m^2n^3

To find the greatest common factor, first factor the terms:

8mn3=222mn324m2n3=2223m2n3\begin{align*} 8mn^3&= 2\cdot2 \cdot 2 \cdot m\cdot n^3\\ 24m^2n^3&=2\cdot2\cdot2\cdot3 \cdot m^2\cdot n^3 \end{align*}
