Expanding Brackets

📘 Part of a Structured Algebra Learning System.

Designed for Grades 6–8 students learning algebra step-by-step.

Expanding brackets means multiplying the term outside the brackets by every term inside the brackets.

This helps students simplify algebraic expressions and prepares them for more advanced algebra skills.

3(y + 2)

Multiply 3 by each term inside the brackets: (3 x y) + (3 x 2)

Simplify: 3y + 6
