Basic Factorisation

The video tutorial covers the concept of factorization, starting with natural numbers and extending to algebraic expressions. It explains how to break down numbers and expressions into their factors, highlighting the difference between prime and irreducible factors. The tutorial introduces two main methods for factorizing algebraic expressions: using common factors and regrouping terms. Examples are provided to illustrate each method, demonstrating how to identify and extract common factors to simplify expressions.
