The answer to this rests on knowing that there are four properties of multiplication (which your teacher will likely expect you to know...):
These are:
1. commutative
2. associative
3. multiplicative identity
4. distributive
I won't define each of these -- they should be in your notes or textbook. Look them up.
In this case, we are multiplying three terms together -- on the left hand side the parentheses mean to multiply a and b first, then multiply that by 3. On the right hand side, we multiply b times 3 first, and then multiply the product by a.
This would be an example of the associative property of multiplication: when three or more factors are multiplied together, the product is the same regardless of how the factors are grouped.
Hope this helps!
Good luck
Okay so there is enough material for 12 people for 10 days but there is 15 of them we have to see how long they can last with that material i am going to need more info to complete this but let me do you an example for some help lets say a whole 10 day package is 10 crackers so if there is 12 packages then that means there is 120 crackers if there were 12 people every one would get 10 but there is 15 so we need to divide 120 and 15 which comes out to 8 so that means every body gets eight crackers whick also means they only last eight days but sense the question is not complete i can not help you much i nee the amount that is in the packages that they purchased
