Factor by grouping



Factoring by grouping is usually done when you have at least 4 terms and they do not look to have anything in common. The procedure for that is:






Factor by grouping, in layman language, is simply defined as the grouping of terms with common factors before factoring a polynomial. A polynomial is a mathematical expression that is formed by variables and constants. The construction of such variables and constants is done by using operations of addition, subtraction, multiplication and non-negative whole number exponents (constants). Before we get down to factor by grouping methods

In mathematics, factoring is one of the important topic in algebra. Given expression can be factored by using the method of factoring by grouping. The given polynomial expression can be factored by different methods that are factoring by grouping, using trinomials by ac method, and group the polynomials more than two groups. Let us solve some example problems in factoring by grouping.
