| ① | Multiply $ \dfrac{4x^2}{10x} $ by $ 3 $ to get $ \dfrac{ 12x^2 }{ 10x } $. Step 1: Write $ 3 $ as a fraction by putting $ \color{red}{ 1 } $ in the denominator. Step 2: Multiply numerators and denominators. Step 3: Simplify numerator and denominator. $$ \begin{aligned} \frac{4x^2}{10x} \cdot 3 & \xlongequal{\text{Step 1}} \frac{4x^2}{10x} \cdot \frac{3}{\color{red}{1}} \xlongequal{\text{Step 2}} \frac{ 4x^2 \cdot 3 }{ 10x \cdot 1 } = \\[1ex] & \xlongequal{\text{Step 3}} \frac{ 12x^2 }{ 10x } \end{aligned} $$ |
| ② | Multiply $ \dfrac{12x^2}{10x} $ by $ x $ to get $ \dfrac{ 12x^3 }{ 10x } $. Step 1: Write $ x $ as a fraction by putting $ \color{red}{ 1 } $ in the denominator. Step 2: Multiply numerators and denominators. Step 3: Simplify numerator and denominator. $$ \begin{aligned} \frac{12x^2}{10x} \cdot x & \xlongequal{\text{Step 1}} \frac{12x^2}{10x} \cdot \frac{x}{\color{red}{1}} \xlongequal{\text{Step 2}} \frac{ 12x^2 \cdot x }{ 10x \cdot 1 } = \\[1ex] & \xlongequal{\text{Step 3}} \frac{ 12x^3 }{ 10x } \end{aligned} $$ |
| ③ | Multiply $ \dfrac{12x^3}{10x} $ by $ y $ to get $ \dfrac{ 12x^3y }{ 10x } $. Step 1: Write $ y $ as a fraction by putting $ \color{red}{ 1 } $ in the denominator. Step 2: Multiply numerators and denominators. Step 3: Simplify numerator and denominator. $$ \begin{aligned} \frac{12x^3}{10x} \cdot y & \xlongequal{\text{Step 1}} \frac{12x^3}{10x} \cdot \frac{y}{\color{red}{1}} \xlongequal{\text{Step 2}} \frac{ 12x^3 \cdot y }{ 10x \cdot 1 } = \\[1ex] & \xlongequal{\text{Step 3}} \frac{ 12x^3y }{ 10x } \end{aligned} $$ |
