Formulas Sheet
Algebra & Arithmetic
- Expand brackets: a(b + c) = ab + ac
- Collect like terms: 2x + 3x = 5x
- Solving equations: isolate the variable
- Difference of squares: (a+b)(a-b) = a² - b²
- Square of a binomial: (a+b)² = a² + 2ab + b²
Fractions, Decimals, Percentages
- a/b + c/d = (ad + bc)/bd
- a/b × c/d = ac/bd
- Divide fractions: multiply by reciprocal
- Decimal → %: multiply by 100
- % → Decimal: divide by 100
- Percentage formula: (part/whole) × 100
