Solution

$2 x^{2}+7 x+3$

Here, $a =2,\, b =7$ and $c =3$

$\therefore \quad l+ m =7$ and $lm =2 \times 3=6$ i.e. $1+6=7$ and $1 \times 6=6$

$ \therefore $        $l=1$ and $m =6$

We have  $ 2 x ^{2}+7 x +3=2 x ^{2}+x +6 x +3 $

                $= x (2 x +1)+3(2 x +1)=(2 x +1)( x +3) $

Thus, $\quad 2 x^{2}+7 x+3=(2 x+1)(x+3)$
