Grouping to factor• If a polynomial has four or more terms it helps to group the polynomial and then factor. This means you take and split the polynomial into pairs.
HINTS for grouping:• There are four or more terms• Terms with common factors should be grouped together.• The two common factors are identical or additive inverses of each other.Example:

The additive inverse property• Recognizing the polynomial as additive inverses can be VERY helpful when factoring by grouping. Additive inverses are like (x7) (7+x). You know they are additive inverses bc when you add them together the sum is 0. Parenthesis are identical except for signs! You need to pull out a negative in one of the outside numbers• Example:
