Simplifying $3x^2(x+8)^3+3x^3(x+8)^2$
I found the derivative of $[x^3(x+8)^3]$ to equal $3x^2(x+8)^3+3x^3(x+8)^2$ using Chain Rule.
Somehow it can simplify further to: $6x^2(x+4)(x+8)^2$.
I can't manage the steps to get it to the simplified form.

Note that $3x^2y^3+3x^3y^2=3x^2y^2(y+x)$ and in this case $y=x+8$.

Carry out continuous factorizations, as :
$$3x^2(x+8)^3+3x^3(x+8)^2 = 3x^2Big[(x+8)^3+x(x+8)^2Big] $$
$$=$$
$$3x^2(x+8)^2Big[x+8 + xBig] = 3x^2(x+8)^2(2x+8) $$
$$=$$
$$boxed{6x^2(x+4)(x+8)^2}$$
Know anywhere I could read up on this??

@pijoborde What do you mean ? You just factor out equal terms.

Would you be willing to edit in the steps with words as you factored them out? I am not seeing it at this time.

Well, first of all we see that we have $3x^2$ and $3x^3= 3x^2 cdot x$. So we factor out $3x^2$ and the rest remain the same. Then we have $(x+8)^2$ and $(x+8)^3 = (x+8)^2 cdot (x+8)$ and thus we factor out $(x+8)^2$. Then, we carry out the operations left in the parentheses and factor out $2$, since $2x+8 = 2(x+4)$.

Note that $3x^2y^3+3x^3y^2=3x^2y^2(y+x)$ and in this case $y=x+8$.
