Well, there are two definitions so I'll give you two examples (and hope I don't write too much again!)...

1: Wrap the chicken in foil.

2: ...then, we can rush in and foil their plans!

1 meaning a thin sheet of metal, usually made of tin, hence the lengthened name of tin foil. This material is usually used for the purpose of cooking, or to keep food fresh.

2 meaning to, for example, ruin someone's plans. Another use is to find out a secret from someone.

Look at me! I'm a walking dictionary! Hehehe! :P

In math, you FOIL when multiplying two binomials. Really, FOIL is just the distributive property; it's just a rule to help make sure you multiply everything in the first binomial by everything in the second. So (x+1)(x+3) is an example of this. It is done by multiplying the first terms, outside terms, inside terms, and then last terms. This is x2+3x+x+3. Simplified, this is x2+4x+3.


What does the foil method helps you remmember how to multiply each term in one by each term in the other?

The FOIL method is a mnemonic that stands for First, Outer, Inner, and Last, helping you remember the order in which to multiply the terms of two binomials. By focusing on these four pairs of terms, you ensure that every combination is accounted for: the product of the first terms, the outer terms, the inner terms, and the last terms. This systematic approach simplifies the process of distributing and combining like terms, making polynomial multiplication more manageable. Using FOIL effectively leads to a correct and organized result.
