So, that means my above answer is still wrong?
By the way, I am a 'she'...
OK so I made a sex typo sorry about that.
According to what I said in post #3,
16 - 4x + xy - 4y
= 4(4-x) + y(x-4)
= -4(x-4) + y(x-4)
=(x-4)(y-4)

Haha, it's ok, people do make mistakes.
Thank you once again.
I really want to do well in maths. Please help and tolerate my stupidness.

Re: [RESOLVED] Check this question for me, thanks!
Have you noticed I corrected the last line? I had made a typo myself.
