    Not if you are so careless in posting the question. There would appear to be at least two errors here, which make it unanswerable.

    What is that negative sign doing between 1/3 and ab ? It should not be there. And the sequence of signs is haywire. Is it really plus, minus, plus ? If it is, then the expression does not factorize.

    Clean up the expression, and it may be possible to answer it.
