FOIL Method
The FOIL method, also known as the double distributive property or more colloquially as foiling, is commonly taught to U.S. high school students learning algebra, as a mnemonic for remembering how to multiply two binomials (polynomials with two terms). The name FOIL comes from the order in which one multiplies the terms of the binomials:
First ("first" terms of each binomial are multiplied together)
Outer ("outside" terms are multiplied—that is, the first term of the first binomial and the second term of the second)
Inner ("inside" terms are multiplied—second term of the first binomial and first term of the second)
Last ("last" terms of each binomial are multiplied)
