How to multiply polynomials

To multiply polynomials, you need to follow these general steps:

Multiply each term of the first polynomial by each term of the second polynomial.
Add all the resulting terms together, combining like terms.
Simplify the resulting expression by combining any remaining like terms.

Here’s an example:

To multiply (x + 3)(2x – 5), you would follow these steps:

Multiply each term of the first polynomial (x + 3) by each term of the second polynomial (2x – 5):

(x+3)(2x-5)

=(\cl purple {x})(\cl blue {2x}) + (\cl purple {x})(\cl blue {-5}) + (\cl purple {3})(\cl blue {2x}) + (\cl purple {3})(\cl blue {-5})

Add all the resulting terms together:

=2x^{2}-5x+6x-15

Simplify the resulting expression by combining like terms:

=2x^{2}+x-15

Multiplying polynomials examples

Here we present several examples of multiplication of polynomials generated with the help of our multiply polynomials calculator.

Example 01: multiplying a polynomial by a monomial

5x^{2}y^{2}((-8x^{3})(y^{2})+9xy^{2}-3x)

=(\cl purple {5x^{2}y^{2}})(\cl blue {(-8x^{3})(y^{2})} + \cl blue {9xy^{2}} + \cl blue {-3x})

=(\cl purple {5x^{2}y^{2}})(\cl blue {(-8x^{3})(y^{2})}) + (\cl purple {5x^{2}y^{2}})(\cl blue {9xy^{2}}) + (\cl purple {5x^{2}y^{2}})(\cl blue {-3x})

=-40x^{5}y^{4}+45x^{3}y^{4}-15x^{3}y^{2}

Example 02: product of two binomials

(x+y^{2})(9xy-8)

=(\cl purple {x} + \cl purple {y^{2}})(\cl blue {9xy} + \cl blue {-8})

=(\cl purple {x})(\cl blue {9xy}) + (\cl purple {x})(\cl blue {-8}) + (\cl purple {y^{2}})(\cl blue {9xy}) + (\cl purple {y^{2}})(\cl blue {-8})

=9x^{2}y-8x+9xy^{3}-8y^{2}

=9xy^{3}+9x^{2}y-8y^{2}-8x

Example 03: multiply a binomial by a polynomial

(2x+8m)(m^{2}+3xm-m^{2})

=(\cl purple {2x} + \cl purple {8m})(\cl blue {m^{2}} + \cl blue {3xm} + \cl blue {-m^{2}})

=(\cl purple {2x})(\cl blue {m^{2}}) + (\cl purple {2x})(\cl blue {3xm}) + (\cl purple {2x})(\cl blue {-m^{2}}) + (\cl purple {8m})(\cl blue {m^{2}}) + (\cl purple {8m})(\cl blue {3xm}) + (\cl purple {8m})(\cl blue {-m^{2}})

=2m^{2}x+6mx^{2}-2m^{2}x+8m^{3}+24m^{2}x-8m^{3}

=24m^{2}x+6mx^{2}

Example 04: multiply 3 polynomials together

(2x+8y^{2}-5xy)(9x^{2}-2z-x)(3x+9y+x^{2})

=(\cl purple {(2x+8y^{2}-5xy)(9x^{2}-2z-x)})(\cl blue {3x} + \cl blue {9y} + \cl blue {x^{2}})

=(\cl purple {(2x+8y^{2}-5xy)(9x^{2}-2z-x)})(\cl blue {3x}) + (\cl purple {(2x+8y^{2}-5xy)(9x^{2}-2z-x)})(\cl blue {9y}) + (\cl purple {(2x+8y^{2}-5xy)(9x^{2}-2z-x)})(\cl blue {x^{2}})

=-135x^{4}y+216x^{3}y^{2}+54x^{4}+15x^{3}y-24x^{2}y^{2}+30x^{2}yz-48xy^{2}z-6x^{3}-12x^{2}z-405x^{3}y^{2}+648x^{2}y^{3}+162x^{3}y+45x^{2}y^{2}-72xy^{3}+90xy^{2}z-144y^{3}z-18x^{2}y-36xyz-45x^{5}y+72x^{4}y^{2}+18x^{5}+5x^{4}y-8x^{3}y^{2}+10x^{3}yz-16x^{2}y^{2}z-2x^{4}-4x^{3}z

=-45x^{5}y+72x^{4}y^{2}+18x^{5}-130x^{4}y-197x^{3}y^{2}+10x^{3}yz+648x^{2}y^{3}-16x^{2}y^{2}z+52x^{4}+177x^{3}y-4x^{3}z+21x^{2}y^{2}+30x^{2}yz-72xy^{3}+42xy^{2}z-144y^{3}z-6x^{3}-18x^{2}y-12x^{2}z-36xyz

Using the Multiplying Polynomials Calculator in the Classroom

Next, we will explore how to use the calculator in the classroom and the benefits of doing so.

Firstly, using the Multiply polynomials calculator in the classroom can help students understand polynomial multiplication better. Students can use the calculator to check their work or learn how to solve more complex problems.

Another benefit of using the calculator in the classroom is that it can save time. Polynomial multiplication can be a tedious process, especially when dealing with more complex expressions. By using the calculator, students can quickly obtain accurate results and focus on understanding the concepts behind the calculation.

Students who struggle with polynomial multiplication can use the calculator to practice and gain confidence, while more advanced students can use it to tackle more complex problems.
