How do you factor $8{v^2} - 30v + 18$?

Hint: This equation is the quadratic equation. The general form of the quadratic equation is $a{x^2} + bx + c = 0$. Where ‘a’ is the coefficient of ${x^2}$, ‘b’ is the coefficient of x and ‘c’ is the constant term.
To solve this equation, we will apply the sum-product pattern. During the simplification, we will take out common factors from the two pairs. Then we will rewrite it in factored form.
 Therefore, we should follow the below steps:
Apply sum-product patterns.
Make two pairs.
Common factor from two pairs.
Rewrite in factored form.

Complete step-by-step answer:
 Here, the quadratic equation is
$ \Rightarrow 8{v^2} - 30v + 18$
Let us apply the sum-product pattern in the above equation.
Since the coefficient of ${v^2}$ is 8 and the constant term is 18. Let us multiply 8 and 18. The answer will be 144. We have to find the factors of 144 which sum to -30. Here, the factors are -24 and -6.
Therefore,
$ \Rightarrow 8{v^2} - 24v - 6v + 18$
Now, make two pairs in the above equation.
$ \Rightarrow \left( {8{v^2} - 24v} \right) - \left( {6v - 18} \right)$
Let us take out the common factor.
$ \Rightarrow 8v\left( {v - 3} \right) - 6\left( {v - 3} \right)$
Now, rewrite the above equation in factored form.

$ \Rightarrow \left( {8v - 6} \right)\left( {v - 3} \right)$

Note:
One important thing is, we can always check our work by multiplying out factors back together, and check that we have got back the original answer.
To check our factorization, multiplication goes like this:
$ \Rightarrow \left( {8v - 6} \right)\left( {v - 3} \right)$
Let us apply multiplication to remove brackets.
$ \Rightarrow 8{v^2} - 24v - 6v + 18$
Let us simplify it. We will get,
$ \Rightarrow 8{v^2} - 30v + 18$
Hence, we get our quadratic equation back by applying multiplication.
