Expansion - With Free Algebra Worksheets

Hi folks,

Welcome back. Sorry that I did not update this blog for a while. I was actually busy with something else.

Today, we'll be learning about expansion pf some algebra equations.

Expansion

General equation

p(q + r) = pq + pr

For example:
2(x + 3)
= 2.x + 2.3 ( the dots represent multiplication )
= 2x + 6

Here's another example:

3x(y+5)
= 3x.y + 3x.5 ( the dots represent multiplication )
= 3xy + 15x

I think this is pretty straight forward for you folks. If you still don't understand, please don't hesitate to post your question or doubt in the comment column.

Here are some free algebra worksheets on expansion for you.

Expand the following
1. 3(2+x)
2. 4(p+1)
3. p(3+x)
4. 5(2x+1)
5. 2(x+y)
6. 8(a+2b)
7. ½(2x+4y)
8. 8(7c-5d)
9. 4(-2f+5d)
10. 6(-m-3n)

more questions

I will post the answer in the next post. Stay tune!
