1. The problem is to solve an equation or expression, but since the exact problem is not specified, let's consider a common example: solve the quadratic equation $x^2 - 5x + 6 = 0$ using an easy method.
2. We can factor the quadratic equation by finding two numbers that multiply to $6$ and add to $-5$. These numbers are $-2$ and $-3$.
3. Rewrite the equation as $(x - 2)(x - 3) = 0$.
4. Set each factor equal to zero: $x - 2 = 0$ or $x - 3 = 0$.
5. Solve for $x$: $x = 2$ or $x = 3$.
6. Therefore, the solutions to the equation are $x = 2$ and $x = 3$.
