Power of X

This worksheet focuses on distributing with variable expressions and coefficients of varying types. Students practice simplifying expressions involving positive, negative, and fractional multipliers while combining like terms when possible. The problems reinforce the idea that distribution applies uniformly, regardless of the complexity of the numbers involved. Learners also compare how distribution interacts with subtraction and variable combinations. This worksheet works well for strengthening symbol fluency in pre-algebra classrooms.
