Hi!

I can help you with joy! :)

7 times the product of -6 and a number. Let the number be

a. Now, "the product of" means we multiply.

Multiply -6 times a: -6a

If you notice, we write the number before the variable.

Now, multiply 7 times -6a:

7(-6a)

Simplify:

-42a

I hope this helps!

Have a Great Day!
