Answer:

d) 2x²(6x³ + 3x + 4)

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to factor the given polynomial, you need to find the greatest common factor of all three terms:  [tex]12x^{5}+6x^{3}+8x^{2}[/tex]

The greatest common factor is '2' and the variable is x².  If we factor out 2x² from each term, we get:

2x²(6x³ + 3x + 4)
