To factor the expression 24x^2 + 6 completely, we can start by factoring out the greatest common factor, which is 6:
6(4x^2 + 1)
Now, we can see if the quadratic expression 4x^2 + 1 can be factored further. However, this quadratic is a sum of squares and cannot be factored using real numbers. Thus, the expression is fully factored as:
6(4x^2 + 1)
6(4x^2 + 1)
