Some formulas occur frequently when you're doing algebraic manipulations and working through mathematical applications. You'll find ways to use these algebra formulas even when you're doing something other than algebra, such as planning a garden or a road trip. Of course, you need to know what the letters and symbols in the formula mean, so both the formulas and the explanations are in this table.

In algebra, knowing the rules of divisibility can help you solve faster. When factoring algebraic expressions to solve equations, you need to be able to pull out the greatest factor. You also need common factors when reducing algebraic fractions. The rules of divisibility help you find the common factors and change the algebraic expressions so that they're put in a more workable form.
