Foil calculator or Foil method Calculator helps to find the simplified product of the two terms.

The Foil is the acronym which shows the method to perform multiplication.

The word FOIL stands for:
F = First
O = outer
I = Inner
L = Last.
Below figure helps you to understand the foil method:

## Steps for Foil Calculator

Step 1 :

Multiply first term of the first bracket to the first term of the other bracket

Step 2 :

Then multiply the first term of the first bracket to the last term of the second bracket.

Step 3 :

Now come to the second term of first bracket, multiply second term with first term of second bracket.

Step 4 :

Finaly multiply last term of first bracket with the last term of the second bracket.

Step 5 :

## Problems on Foil Calculator

1. ### (2x + 3)(3x + 4)

Step 1 :

Multiply first term of the first expression with first term of second expression

2x $\times$ 3x = 6X2

Step 2 :

Then Multiply first term of first expression with second term of second expression

2x $\times$ 4 = 8x

Step 3 :

Now multiply the second term of first expression with second term of second expression
3 $\times$ 3x = 9x

Step 4 :

Lastly multiply second term of first expression with second term of second expression
3 $\times$ 4 = 12

Step 5 :

6x2 + 8x + 9x + 12.

6x2 + 17x + 12

2. ### (4x + 3)( 5x + 3)

Step 1 :

Multiply first term of the first expression with first term of second expression

4x $\times$ 5x = 20 x2

Step 2 :

Then Multiply first term of first expression with second term of second expression

4x $\times$ 3 = 12 x

Step 3 :

Now multiply the second term of first expression with second term of second expression

3 $\times$ 5x = 15x

Step 4 :

Lastly multiply second term of first expression with second term of second expression

3 $\times$ 3 = 9

Step 5 :
