Answer 1

3*x

Explanation:

We can break down the problem piece by piece. We have "the product". The product of what? The product of 3 and a number. The problem tells us to replace a number with x. So it is 3*x.

Answer 2

3x

Explanation:

To answer this question, we have to understand what a product is. A product is the result of multiplication. For example, the product of 5 and 5 is 25 because 5 × 5 = 25.

We can apply this concept to the given expression.

"the product of 3 and a number"

means:

3 × "a number"

And since the problem specifies that "a number" is represented by the variable x, we can replace it with that.

3 × x

This looks a bit confusing with the x-like multiplication sign, so we can remove that and make 3 a coefficient of x.

3x
