This is a simple algebraic, but I would like to know how to officially solve the problem,

I tried factor(6*a+12*b+18*c); it simply outputs what I input.

I tried primpart(6*a+12*b+18*c) ; the output is: a+2b+3c

I tried content(6*a+12*b+18*c), the output is 6

What I'm looking for an output is, 6*(a+2*b+3*c), this is the answer my Algebra book is looking for, I also get this answer by

using my HP Graphing Calculator, but I'm unable to get the answer from Maples. Can anyone help?
