Simplify polynomials calculator

This calculator simplifies polynomials as much as possible. Calculator works with polynomials in one or more variables. For example calculator can simplify expressions such as 2(x+1)-4(x-2)+3(3-4x) or (a+b)³-(a-b)³. The calculator shows all the steps and easy-to-understand explanations of how the problem was solved.

①	Multiply each term of $ \left( \color{blue}{x+2}\right) $ by each term in $ \left( x-3\right) $. $$ \left( \color{blue}{x+2}\right) \cdot \left( x-3\right) = x^2-3x+2x-6 $$
②	Combine like terms: $$ x^2 \color{blue}{-3x} + \color{blue}{2x} -6 = x^2 \color{blue}{-x} -6 $$
③	Multiply each term of $ \left( \color{blue}{x^2-x-6}\right) $ by each term in $ \left( x+4\right) $. $$ \left( \color{blue}{x^2-x-6}\right) \cdot \left( x+4\right) = x^3+4x^2-x^2-4x-6x-24 $$
④	Combine like terms: $$ x^3+ \color{blue}{4x^2} \color{blue}{-x^2} \color{red}{-4x} \color{red}{-6x} -24 = x^3+ \color{blue}{3x^2} \color{red}{-10x} -24 $$
