Linear expressions: expand, factorise and simplify
Use the Skillr scratchpad or a notebook to expand brackets, collect like terms, factorise fully and name the algebraic property being used.
SkillrHub quiz practice is built for curriculum-aligned revision with answer feedback and a clear review path.
60-second Quick Read
- Expand by multiplying every term inside the bracket by the outside factor.
- Simplify by collecting like terms only, and watch signs when subtracting brackets.
- Common trap: Factorising fully means taking out the highest common factor, not just any common factor.
