What is factoring of polynomials

The video tutorial explains the concept of factoring by first revisiting multiplication and its application in finding areas. It uses examples to demonstrate how multiplication works with numbers and variables, emphasizing the distributive property. The tutorial then transitions to factoring, explaining it as the process of determining side lengths from a given area. It provides examples of factoring numbers and polynomials, illustrating how to rewrite expressions as products. The tutorial concludes by reinforcing the understanding of factoring as finding the lengths that multiply to give the area of a rectangle.
