Answer

$4y(y+2)(3y+1)$

Work Step by Step

$ 12y^{3}+28y^{2}+8y\qquad$...factor out the common term, $4y$. $=4y(3y^{2}+7y+2)$ ... Searching for two factors of $ac=6$ whose sum is $b=7,$ we find$\qquad 6$ and $1.$ Rewrite the middle term and factor in pairs: $=4y(3y^{2}+6y+y+2)=$ $=4y[3y(y+2)+(y+2)]$ =$4y(y+2)(3y+1)$
