Procedure for Factoring a Linear Expression
Procedure for Factoring a Linear Expression is a Grade 7 math skill from enVision, Mathematics, Grade 7, covering Generate Equivalent Expressions. Distributive If are real numbers, then The form on the left is used to multiply. The form on the right is used to factor. Explanation This is like 'un-distributing' an expression. You identify the GCF shared by all terms, pull it out to the front, and write what's left inside parentheses. For example: Examples Factor . You identify the GCF shared by all terms, pull it out to the front, and write what's left inside parentheses.
Key Concepts
Distributive Property.
If $a, b, c$ are real numbers, then $$a(b+c) = ab+ac \quad \text{and} \quad ab+ac = a(b+c)$$ The form on the left is used to multiply. The form on the right is used to factor.
