Detail solution

Differentiate $3 x^{4} - 4 x^{3}$ term by term:
1. The derivative of a constant times a function is the constant times the derivative of the function.
  1. Apply the power rule: $x^{4}$ goes to $4 x^{3}$
  So, the result is: $12 x^{3}$
2. The derivative of a constant times a function is the constant times the derivative of the function.
  1. The derivative of a constant times a function is the constant times the derivative of the function.
    1. Apply the power rule: $x^{3}$ goes to $3 x^{2}$
    So, the result is: $12 x^{2}$
  So, the result is: $- 12 x^{2}$
The result is: $12 x^{3} - 12 x^{2}$
Now simplify:

$12 x^{2} \left(x - 1\right)$

The answer is:

$12 x^{2} \left(x - 1\right)$
