\frac{x^{3}-12x+16}{2}
Factor out \frac{1}{2}.
\left(x+4\right)\left(x^{2}-4x+4\right)
Consider x^{3}-12x+16. By Rational Root Theorem, all rational roots of a polynomial are in the form \frac{p}{q}, where p divides the constant term 16 and q divides the leading coefficient 1. One such root is -4. Factor the polynomial by dividing it by x+4.
\left(x-2\right)^{2}
Consider x^{2}-4x+4. Use the perfect square formula, a^{2}-2ab+b^{2}=\left(a-b\right)^{2}, where a=x and b=2.
\frac{\left(x+4\right)\left(x-2\right)^{2}}{2}
Rewrite the complete factored expression.
