Does this problem:
[(4x^2y + 7x^2y) / 2] × 2xy
Equal 11x^3y^2
yes, the two terms inside the (....) can be added, since they are like terms
the 2 in the denominator would cancel the 2 in the 2xy multiplier, so
(11x^2 y)(xy) = 11x^3 y^2
[(4x^2y + 7x^2y) / 2] × 2xy
Equal 11x^3y^2
the 2 in the denominator would cancel the 2 in the 2xy multiplier, so
(11x^2 y)(xy) = 11x^3 y^2
