This topic focuses on practicing how to factorize quadratic equations by finding common factors among the terms. Specifically, students are prompted to identify common factors within the first two terms and the last two terms of each equation, split the terms accordingly, and then solve to find the factors that multiply to form the quadratic expression. Each problem presents a quadratic expression, and students must choose the correct factorization from multiple choices. This is a critical skill within the broader unit of factoring polynomials, particularly those with leading coefficients.
