Write Problem: Write down the multiplication problem.We are given the expression 7x2y214x2×20xy and we need to multiply the two fractions.
Multiply Numerators and Denominators: Multiply the numerators and the denominators.When multiplying fractions, we multiply the numerators together and the denominators together. So, we have (14x2×20xy)/(7x2y2).
Simplify by Canceling Factors: Simplify the expression by canceling common factors. In the numerator, we have 14x2×20xy which simplifies to 280x3y. In the denominator, we have 7x2y2. We can cancel out the common factors of x2 and 7 from the numerator and denominator. This leaves us with y2280xy.
Further Simplify: Simplify the expression further.We can cancel out one y from the numerator and denominator, which leaves us with y280x.
