Mathematical Expressions

Mathematical expressions are numbers, operators and symbols grouped to 'express' or 'show' a value. Once you understand manipulating expressions principles, you can factorise and simplify expressions. This workshop explores collecting like terms, expanding brackets, factorizing quadratic expressions and dealing with algebraic fractions.
