What is the term for breaking a larger number apart into smaller numbers that can be multiplied together to get a specific result?.

Respuesta :

The term used for breaking a larger number apart into smaller numbers that can be multiplied together to get a specific result is factorization.

Factorization

For instance,

factorise 3x² + 9x + 6

The common factors of 3, 9 and 6 is 3

= 3(x² + 3x + 2)

  • Also, quadratic equation can be solved using factorization method

x² + x - 20 = 0

x² + 5x - 4x - 20 = 0

x(x + 5) - 4(x + 5) = 0

(x + 5) (x - 4) = 0

x + 5 = 0 ; x - 4 = 0

x = 5 or. x = 4
