What is the factorisation of \(ab+ac+db+dc\) by grouping?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: \((a+d)(b+c)\)

The direct answer is A: \((a+d)(b+c)\). Group the terms as \((ab+ac)+(db+dc)\). Take \(a\) from the first group and \(d\) from the second: \(a(b+c)+d(b+c)\). Both terms now contain the common binomial \((b+c)\), so factor it out: \((a+d)(b+c)\). Option A is confirmed by expansion: \(ab+ac+db+dc\). Option B would expand to \(ac+ad+bc+bd\), which has different pairings. Option C gives \(ab+ad+bc+cd\), also different. Option D produces signs unlike the original expression. The key skill is arranging terms so the same bracket appears twice. Memory cue: after grouping, look for an identical binomial factor; if it is not identical, regroup or check the signs.
