put the bracket before the answer and multiply it by the nth term
use a calculator
Multiply out all the brackets (parentheses) and then combine like terms.
BOMDAS Brackets (parenthesis), Of, Multiplication, Division, Addition, Subtraction
You cannot usually simplify numbers. What you can simplify is numeric or algebraic expressions. You carry out the various operations but use BODMAS (I prefer BIDMAS) to determine the order. First do the Brackets. Next the Index (or power Of) Then, with equal priority, Division and Multiplication And last, again with equal priority, Addition and Subtraction.
By long division. Factorisation may work but you cannot depend on that.

In many cases you can simplify an algebraic expression. You don't really "solve" them; an equation can be solved. An equation is a declaration that two expressions are equal, for example, x + 3 = 10.

4y -5
You multiply out brackets, remove common factors from fractions, combine like terms.
They can be used to simplify expressions so that the solutions can be found more easily.
To add and subtract algebraic expressions in brackets, first, apply the distributive property if necessary, which involves multiplying the term outside the brackets by each term inside the brackets. For example, in the expression ( a(b + c) ), you would rewrite it as ( ab + ac ). Once the brackets are removed, combine like terms by adding or subtracting the coefficients of similar variables. Finally, simplify the expression as needed.
no algebraic expressions do not have equal signs but equations do.
Algebraic expressions are terms that do not include an equality sign
