What to Focus On

  • Distributive property: a(b + c) = ab + ac
  • Reverse order form: (a + b)c = ac + bc
  • It works for two terms and also for three or more terms inside brackets

  • If one number increases by 1, the product increases by the other number
  • The rule a(b + 1) = ab + a is a direct use of distributivity
  • Expressions with increases and decreases can be expanded systematically

  • Every term inside a bracket must be distributed across the other bracket
  • Like terms can be combined after expansion
  • The cube identity is a key pattern in the chapter

Common Mistakes to Avoid

Multiplication can be distributed over any product inside brackets, not just over addition or subtraction.

A negative sign outside a bracket changes only the first term inside the bracket.

When one number in a product is increased by 1, the product increases by 1 too.

Memory Tips

Distributive property of multiplication over addition

a(b + c) = ab + ac

(a + b)c = ac + bc

Increase in product when one number is increased by 1
