Question

Choose the product. a 2b 3 · 6ab 2

Answer 1

Let's reorganize the problem to make it easier to understand... we can change the order because of the commutative property of multiplication.

(3)2ab * (2)6ab=
6ab * 12ab=
72 a^2b^2

Answer 2

`6(a^(3))(b^(5))`

Explanation:

we have

`a^(2)b^(3)6ab^(2)`

Group terms that contain the same variable

`6(a^(2)a)(b^(3)b^(2))`

sum the power

`6(a^(2+1))(b^(3+2))`

`6(a^(3))(b^(5))`
