Now I know that expansion and factorisation are reverse processes, like addition and subtraction and division and multiplication. I also learnt to check my answers by working backwards and cross checking as I tend to make careless mistakes.

1. Expansion is like taking out all your ingredients to make a strawberry cake.
Factorisation is like combining all the ingredients to produce the strawberry cake. 🍰
2. I used to think that expansion and factorisation was very complicated, now I know that it is actually really simple once you get the hang of it.

Expansion is like scattering the books all over the place.

Factorisation is like arranging the books, in alphabetical order.

I used to think that factorisation can only be done by finding out the HCF of the terms.

Now I know that factorisation can be done by using other methods (e.g. cross method and multiplication frame

Expansion is like cracking an egg.

Factorisation is like putting the egg back together.

Expansion is like putting different types of fruits d together.

Factorisation is like separating the different types of fruits

I used to think that factorisation would be a different process from expansion but I now know that they are reverse processes

Expansion is like separating paints into their separate colours.

Factorisation is like mixing all the colours of pain together.

I used to think that factorisation is mixing colours together haphazardly. Now I know that the colours have to be mixed in a certain order and certain colours should not be mixed together.

Expansion is like classifying.
Factorisation is like mixing            everything together.
I used to think that                factorisation only had one method which is using HCF but now I learnt that there are many methods to factorisation.

Expansion is like spilling all your problems to a counsellor, but factorisation is like keeping all your issues bottled up.

I used to think that there was only one method of factorisation, which was using HCFl but now I know that there are more methods of factorisation: HCF, grouping and algebraic identities.

Factorisation is like saying that our Math teacher is: characteristics(tall+wears spectacles+short hair+human+female) / I own 10 fish(" common factor")

Expansion is like saying that our Math teacher is Ms 🤬(in the simplest description/form), who fulfils all criteria(equivalent) / I own 2 guppies, 3 clownfish, 1 angelfish and 4 archerfish (all are types of fishes)

1. Expansion is like opening a box and taking out the things in the box
Factorisation is like organising the things in said box
2. I used to think that there was only one method to carry out factorisation (cross method)
Now I know that there is the cross method and the multiplication frame.

Factorisation is like sweeping up the leaves in your yard. Expansion is like scattering the leaves around the yard according to the species.

I used to think that there was only one single method for factorisation, but now I learnt that there are many methods of factorisation.

Valencia .            1.Expansion is like sorting the rubbish into its different categories. When it is sorted out into paper plastic and metal, it is easier to collate the rubbish. e.g paper + plastic +plastic+metal = paper +2plastic+ metal

2. I used to think that factorisation was simple, but now i know that there are many different ways to solve different solutions. There are many different patterns of factorisation and have to use diff methods to solve them.

Factorised form is like chocolates in a gift box as they are well organised (in brackets).
Expanded form is like chocolates not in a gift box (laid out on the table) as they are not organised with brackets.
I used to think that there was only one method of factorisation (brain power). Now I know that there are other methods, such as the multiplication frame and the cross method :D

1. Expansion is like throwing all the rubbish together in one place.
Factorisation is like separating the rubbish into different categories.

2. I used to think that factorisation is very difficult. Now I know it is a bit easier if I do more practices and improve my observation skills such that I can identify the pattern in the question more easily.

Factorisation is like the complete structure
2. I used to think that factorisation and expansion only had one method of solving. Now I know that there are many methods of expansion and factorisation. (Factorisation is super confusing)
