We have to find a number whose sum = -35 and product =25×12=300
We get -15 and -20 as the numbers [-15+-20=-35 and -15×-20=300]
25a2–35a+12 = 25a2–15a−20a+12

12ky2+8ky–20k = 4k(3y2+2y–5)
[Here, 3y2+2y–5 can be written as 3y2+5y–3y–5 using splitting the middle term method.]
= 4k(3y2+5y–3y–5)
= 4k[y(3y+5)–1(3y+5)]
