Question:

How would you expand brackets?

I dont get it how can you do ab(a+b)?? I know with numbers but how with letters??Is that even an area or volume??

Answer:

Multiply the part in front of the bracket (ab for you) by each term inside the bracket. (terms are separated by a + or a - ) So ab(a+b) a^2b+b^2a (^2 means squared)
Multiply
ab(a + b) (a^2)*b + a*b^2 Now, you can answer your question.
