A product in algebra is the result of two or more terms multiplied together.

Multiplicative relationships between terms

Maths

Checking and securing understanding of the distributive law with algebraic terms

Checking and securing solving linear equations

The product of two binomials

Difference of two squares

More complex binomial products

Additive relationships

Changing the subject with simple formula

Changing the subject with more complex formula

Changing the subject to suit the context

Evaluating expressions with and without changing the subject

Problem solving with expressions and formulae

In this unit, pupils use the distributive law to find the product of two binomials. In algebraic manipulation, pupils use apply this knowledge in order to factorise quadratics.

In the prior unit, pupils learnt how to rearrange an equation to find a specific value that satisfied the equation. In expressions and formulae, pupils use their understanding of rearrangement to change the subject of a formula.

This unit develops pupil understanding of formulae and how to rearrange them. Pupils will learn how to recognise and manipulate binomials and learn to recognise the difference of two squares.
