GCSE Maths Practice: factorising-expressions

Question 11 of 12

This question tests your ability to factorise a binomial by extracting the HCF.

‹ ›

\( \text{Which of the following is a correct factorisation of } x^2 - 4x? \)

Choose one option:

\( x(x - 4) \) \( (x - 2)^2 \) \( x^2(1 - 4x) \) \( x(x - 4) - 4 \)

Multiply back to check your factorisation is correct.

Factor out the highest common factor (HCF) to simplify the expression.
