I need to translate to an algebraic expression. The product of two numbers multiplied by 3.
Let x = one number and y = the other.
3xy
Think about the parts. You need variables and numbers. Variables are unknown numbers. How many numbers are given? How many numbers are unknown? Then consider the words "product" and "multiplied."
To translate the given phrase into an algebraic expression, you can use the variables "x" and "y" to represent the two numbers.
The product of two numbers can be written as "xy," and when this result is multiplied by 3, the algebraic expression becomes:
3 * xy
To translate the given phrase "The product of two numbers multiplied by 3" into an algebraic expression, follow these steps:
1. Assign variables: Let's assign variables to represent the two numbers. For example, let's use the variables "x" and "y."
2. Express the product of the two numbers: To multiply two numbers, you simply write them next to each other or use the multiplication symbol "*", like this: "xy"
3. Multiply the product by 3: To multiply the expression "xy" by 3, you can write it as "3xy".
Hence, the algebraic expression that represents the given phrase "The product of two numbers multiplied by 3" is "3xy".
