#(7n-3)(n-10)#

Explanation:

Grouping.

  1. #(7n^2-70n)+(-3n+30)#
  2. #7n(n-10)-3(n-10)# Factoring out reveals a common factor in the parentheses.
  3. #(7n-3)(n-10)# Reformat.

Note: When you group, make sure you split up the middle term so that the new parentheses groups both have a common factor.
