  83115 -  ((22x3 • 1160) • a)

Step  2  :

Multiplying exponents :

 2.1    22  multiplied by  23   = 2(2 + 3) = 25

Equation at the end of step  2  :

  83115 -  ((25•5•29x3) • a)

Step  3  :

Step  4  :

Pulling out like terms :

 4.1     Pull out like factors :

   83115 - 4640x3a  =   -5 • (928x3a - 16623) 

Trying to factor as a Difference of Cubes:

 4.2      Factoring:  928x3a - 16623 

Theory : A difference of two perfect cubes,  a3 - b3 can be factored into
              (a-b) • (a2 +ab +b2)

Proof :  (a-b)•(a2+ab+b2) =
            a3+a2b+ab2-ba2-b2a-b3 =
            a3+(a2b-ba2)+(ab2-b2a)-b3 =
            a3+0+0-b3 =
            a3-b3


Check :  928  is not a cube !!

Ruling : Binomial can not be factored as the difference of two perfect cubes

Final result :

  -5 • (928x3a - 16623)
