Just remember: ax^2 + bx + c turns into (mx + n)(px + q) so that mp = a, nq = c, and (mq + np) = b.

To factorize a quadratic equation, look for two binomials that multiply to give you the original quadratic! For example, x^2 + 5x + 6 factors to (x + 2)(x + 3).

Break down the middle term into two parts that add up to the middle term but multiply to the product of the leading and constant terms.

From personal experience, factoring becomes second nature with practice. Start with simpler examples and build up to more complex ones.
