9 and -1 fits this description.
Next, write 9 and -1 on the right side of the cross.
Now, find two values that will multiply into f2 and write them on the left side of the cross.
f and f fits this description.
Finally, group the values in a row with a bracket and combine the brackets.
Therefore, the factorised expression is (f+9)(f-1).
