Q. Multiply. Write your answer in simplest form.74g2−5g×6
Identify expression: Identify the expression to be multiplied and rewrite it clearly. The expression is (4g2−5g)/7 multiplied by 6.
Multiply numerator by 6: Multiply the numerator of the fraction by 6. This gives us (4g2−5g)×6.
Distribute 6 to terms: Distribute the 6 to both terms in the numerator. This results in 6×4g2−6×5g, which simplifies to 24g2−30g.
Maintain denominator: Since the denominator is 7 and we have not changed it, the new expression is (24g2−30g)/7.
Check for common factors: Check if the numerator and denominator have any common factors that can be simplified. In this case, both terms in the numerator have a common factor of 6, but 7 does not share this factor, so the expression is already in simplest form.
