Factoring Practice

Instructions:
These practice sheets are design to reinforce your fluency in
basic algebra since it is assumed that you have no prior knowledge of
algebra
in this unit. In each question you will be asked to factorise the
quadratic expression. This is one of the hardest skills in algebra to
master.
Good luck!
