We have learned various techniques for factoring polynomials with up to four terms. The challenge is to identify the type of polynomial and then decide which method to apply.

The process of writing a number or expression as a product is called factoring5. A useful step in this process is finding the greatest common monomial factor (GCF) of two or more monomials.

A useful step in this process is finding the greatest common monomial factor (GCF) of two or more monomials. The GCF of the monomials is the product of the common variable factors and the GCF of the coefficients.

This section will review three of the most common types of factoring - factoring out a Greatest Common Factor, Trinomial Factoring and factoring a Difference of Squares.
