Divide a Polynomial by a Monomial

Multiply Polynomials using the Foil Method

Determine the Greatest Common Factor of Natural Numbers

Determine the Greatest Common Factor of Monomial

Factor out the Greatest Common Factor of a Polynomial

Factor by Grouping

Solve Special Products

Solve Applications involving Factoring Polynomials

Explanation / Answer

Solving factors by grouping were of my interest. Since at the end of it you know there will be a grouping possible and you just have to look for it. I dont have the exact problem but yeah the problem comprised of grouping a fourth degree polnomial.

Solving applications involving factoring polynimials was the one I found most challenging amongst the topics provided. It is easier to solve simple polynomial equations but when it comes to their application you have to keep 2-3 things in mind.

The problem was to find the polynomials with real coefficients when there is partial fraction expansion used in it.
