Step 1 :We are given the quadratic equation \(3 z^{2}+z-14\).
Step 2 :We need to find two numbers that multiply to -42 (which is the product of 3 and -14) and add to 1 (the coefficient of z).
Step 3 :The two numbers that satisfy these conditions are 7 and -6.
Step 4 :We can rewrite the middle term of the quadratic equation as the sum of the terms 7z and -6z. So, the equation becomes \(3 z^{2}+7z-6z-14\).
Step 5 :We can now factor by grouping. The first two terms can be grouped together, and the last two terms can be grouped together.
Step 6 :The factored form of the equation is \((z - 2)(3z + 7)\).
Step 7 :\(\boxed{(z - 2)(3z + 7)}\) is the final answer.
