Answer :

To verify an equation, we need to see if the LHS = RHS.

Equation
\downarrow


18*(7*(-3))=18*7+18*(-3)

Let's solve the left hand side (LHS) first.


18*(7*(-3))\\= 18 * (-21)\\=\underline{ -378}

Now, let's solve the right hand side (RHS).


18*7+18*(-3)\\= 126 - 54\\=\underline {72}

But,


\boxed{-378 \\eq 72}

We can see that the LHS doesn't match or isn't equal to the RHS.

Hence, we can say that LHS
\\eq RHS & the equation is NOT true.


\rule{150pt}{2pt}

18*(7*(-3))=18*7+18*(-3)\\18*-21=126 - 54\\-378 \\eq 72

LHS
\\eq RHS
