To start, we need to state that the area of a rectangle is the length multiplied by the width. Therefore, the area will be 4x multiplied by (y+5). Now to do this we need to expand the bracket. To expand t...

If there are 12 counters in a bag,each with colour either red, yellow or blue, we can say that the number of red counters, blue counters and yellow counters must add up to 12.R + B + Y = 12 ( R = No. of R...

Start by looking for multiples of 10. You have the pairs 2 & 5 and 1 & 10. Both signs are positive in the original equation so it will either be positive 2 & 5 or positive 1 & 10. Clearly ...

We know our answer is going to look like this: (ax + b)(cx + d).
First we can split our original equation in order to make it easy to simplify. As we know that 12 multiplied by 3 is equal to 36 we c...

We will call sandwiches S and packets of crisps C. These are the 'unknowns'. From the information we can write down two equations. Equation 1: 3S + 2C = 9 and Equation 2: 5S + 6C = 19. We need two equatio...
