Maple Help format output collect terms with same coefficients and multiple variables I realize this may have been asked before, however I have no idea what to search for specifically, since the topic is so generic it returns so many results that I cannot find what I am looking for.
eqn3:=3.9024*x+3.9024*y;
How can I get Maple to output as (3.9024)(x+y) instead of (3.9024)(x)+(3.9024)(y)?
I have tried factor, collect, simplify, etc.  I am using Maple 16

Note that automatic simplification distributes numeric coefficients, e.g.
if you enter 
> expr:= 3.9024*(x+y);

the result will be
$$ expr := 3.9024 x + 3.9024 y $$
To defeat this, one way is to use the `` function.
> E:= map(t -> (t = ``(t)), indets(expr,float)):
> collect(subs(E, expr),``);

$$ (x + y) (3.9024) $$
Unfortunately I don't see how to put the $(3.9024)$ before the $(x+y)$.
It thought it would be possible with sort, but I can't seem to find the right options.  Well, here's a rather kludgy work-around.
> restart;
  expr:= 3.9024*(x+y);
  E:= map(t -> t = ``(t), indets(expr,float));
  subs(x=w-y,E,expr);
  sort(%,w);
  subs(w=x+y,%);

$$ (3.9024)(x+y) $$
