Combining like terms worksheets
Each print is a different sheet with its own answer key. You don't need to sign up.
Like terms have the same letter, so add their number parts: 3x + 2x makes 5x.

Combining like terms is your child's first taste of simplifying algebra: 3x + 2x + 4x collapses to 9x because the terms share a variable. These sheets mix three moves: combining like terms, expanding 3(x + 4), and factoring 3x + 12.
