    Well, x^3 is the same as x.x.x (the dot meaning multiply)

    Find what are the common terms and you'll obtain the first two factors.

    From there, try looking if you have one of the two factors that you can factor again.

    Hint:

    Each factor is a quotient, and multiplying two factors make another quotient.

    Post what you come up with!
