Analyzing Binomial Distributions A binomial distribution's expected value, or mean, is calculated by multiplying the number of trials (n) by the probability of success (p), or n × p.

Fast computation of large binomial coefficients "binomial (n, k)" based on Goetgheluck's algorithm [1] combined with binary splitting while multiplying a series of factors, and a multiplication tree ...

We do know that there are alternate ways of approaching multiplication of binomials, but I'd like to focus on using the geometric method of multiplication because, well, because I can. Multiplication ...

Also known as Binomial theorem demonstrated by the principles of multiplication. By the Rev. Abram Robertson, A.M. of Christ Church, Oxford, F.R.S. In a letter to the Rev. Dr. Maskelyne, F.R.S. and ...

Use it when multiplying a binomial by a trinomial, as students did in the above example, and it’s as though the middle term of the trinomial never existed. So, how can we prevent such confusion?

For one, I'm not a fan of FOIL (first-outside-inside-last) for a plethora of reasons. While I think it's handy to have an acronym that reminds students of a procedure, it only works in a very special ...
