9c3d2(6d2+c)

Explanation:

Look at what power each c and d is raised to and take out the most that you can out of both of them:

there are at least three c's in both terms so you can pull out a c3 and there are at least 2 d's in both terms so pull out d2. Finally there is a common factor 9 in both terms so we'll pull that out as well:

9c3d2(6d2+c)
