Method of Factorisation
Name Working
Common factor method 1) We can look at each of the term in the
algebraic expression, factorize each term
2) Then find common factors to factorize the
expression
Example
2x+4
=2(x+2)
Factorisation by regrouping terms 1) First we see common factor across all the
terms
2) we look at grouping the terms and check if
we find binomial factor from both the groups.
3) Take the common Binomial factor out
Example
2xy + 3x + 2y + 3
=2×x×y+3×x+2×y+3
= x × (2y + 3) + 1 × (2y + 3)
= (2y + 3) (x + 1)

Factorisation of the form (x+a)(x+b) Given x2+ px + q,
Example
48 (x2yz + xy2z + xyz2) /4xyz
=48xyz (x + y + z)/4xyz
= 4 ×12×xyz (x + y + z) /4xyz
= 12 (x + y + z)
So, we have
Dividend = Divisor × Quotient.
In general, however, the relation is
Dividend = Divisor × Quotient + Remainder
