You do it trial and error:
start with the y^2 factor
4,1
1,4
2,2
Then the six factors
6,1
1,6
3,2
2,3
put them together, need to make 25
Hmmm 4*6 +1*1 makes 25.
I hope that helps.
I had asked you earlier, what methods you had learned, but you changed your name again.
You will have to let me know which method I should explain, I use about 3 different methods.
