Q1 of 59 Page 10

Factorize the following expressions:

p2 + pq + pr + qr

= p2 + pq + pr + qr
Taking p common in p2 + pq


we get,


= p(p + q) + pr + qr
Taking r common in pr + qr
we get,
= p(
p + q) + r(p + q)


Taking (p + q) common in both the terms


we get,
= (
p + q)(p + r)
p2 + pq + pr + qr = (p + q)(p + r)
