Factorization by Grouping the Terms of the Expression

Answer»

In many situations, we come across polynomials, which may not have common factors among its terms. In such cases, we group the terms of the expression in such a way that there are common factors among the terms of the groups so formed.

Steps for Factorization by Grouping

  • Rearrange the terms if necessary.
  • Group the given expression in such a way that each group has its common factor.
  • Identify the HCF of each group.
  • Identify the other factor.
  • Write the expression as a product of the common factor and the other factor.
