''Parenthetical Expression. The parenthesis was described in Chapter 1 as a grouping symbol. When an algebraic expression is enclosed by a parenthesis it is known as a parenthetical expression. '''When a parenthetical expression is immediately preceded by coefficient, the parenthetical expression is a factor and <u>must be multiplied by the coefficient.</u>''' This is done in the following manner.''
::''5(a + b) = 5a + 5b'' <br/>
::''3a(b - c) = 3ab - 3ac''
