Is there a similar solve for say … 4^12 + 4^23
What about Σ4^n*(n+1)
if 4^1*3 + 4^2*3 = (4^1 + 4^2)*3 ...

What would it look like to you if there were one? I’m not sure what kind of “similar” you have in your mind.

So you’re asking how to factor 2x + 3x^2?
You can factor x: x(2 + 3x). Or in this example, 4(2 + 4*3).
