Learn the properties, and apply them! What properties you use depends on the specific situations; some examples include:* Combine like terms (terms with the same variables), e.g.: 4x + 5x = 9x

* Factor expressions

* Multiply factors, so you can combine them with other expressions. In a way, this is the opposite of the previous point.
