Question

Suppose you multiplied the cereal box dimensions in a different order:

Answer 1

$\bf V=(x)(4x+3)(4x)\implies \cfrac{V}{4x}=(x)(4x+3)$

Answer 2

Answer:

$V=(x)(4x+3)(4x)=16x^2+12x$                        

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Expression $V = (x)(4x+3)(4x)$

To find : Suppose you multiplied the cereal box dimensions in a different order ?

Solution :

The given expression is the product of three numbers,

$V = (x)(4x+3)(4x)$

First we multiply first two terms,

$(x)(4x+3)=4x^2+3x$

Substitute back,

$V = (4x^2+3x)(4x)$

Then multiply the left terms,

$V =16x^2+12x$

Therefore, $V=(x)(4x+3)(4x)=16x^2+12x$
