Mr. Smith has 5 children, since each of the 4 daughters share the same 1 brother.
Patterns can help muliply and divide. For an example say your problem is 6x2 you can do 2+2+2+2+2+2. Or if your problem is 21 divided by 3 you could do 21-3 untill you get to zero and count how many time you had to subtract.
Answer:
Explanation:
1.
x^2 - 10x + 24
= (x - 6)(x - 4)
2.
x^2 - 12x + 27
= (x - 9)(x - 3)
3.
x^2 - 13x + 36
= (x - 9)(x - 4)
4.
x^2 - 5x - 14
= (x - 7)(x + 2)
5.
x^2 + x - 20
= (x + 5)(x - 4)
6.
x^2 - 3x - 40
= (x - 8)(x + 5)
7.
x^2 + 2x - 48
= (x - 8)(x + 6)
8.
x^2 + 10x - 24
= (x - 2)(x + 12)
9.
x^2 - 7x - 44
= (x - 11)(x + 4)
10.
x^2 + x - 2
= (x + 2)(x - 1)
11.
x^2 + 2x + 1
= (x + 1)(x + 1)
12.
x^2 - x - 6
= (x - 3)(x + 2)
