| ① | Multiply $49$ by $ \dfrac{x}{35} $ to get $ \dfrac{ 49x }{ 35 } $. Step 1: Write $ 49 $ as a fraction by putting $ \color{red}{1} $ in the denominator. Step 2: Multiply numerators and denominators. Step 3: Simplify numerator and denominator. $$ \begin{aligned} 49 \cdot \frac{x}{35} & \xlongequal{\text{Step 1}} \frac{49}{\color{red}{1}} \cdot \frac{x}{35} \xlongequal{\text{Step 2}} \frac{ 49 \cdot x }{ 1 \cdot 35 } = \\[1ex] & \xlongequal{\text{Step 3}} \frac{ 49x }{ 35 } \end{aligned} $$ |
| ② | Multiply $ \dfrac{49x}{35} $ by $ x $ to get $ \dfrac{ 49x^2 }{ 35 } $. 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. $$ \begin{aligned} \frac{49x}{35} \cdot x & \xlongequal{\text{Step 1}} \frac{49x}{35} \cdot \frac{x}{\color{red}{1}} \xlongequal{\text{Step 2}} \frac{ 49x \cdot x }{ 35 \cdot 1 } = \\[1ex] & \xlongequal{\text{Step 3}} \frac{ 49x^2 }{ 35 } \end{aligned} $$ |
