Triple a is: 3a

Then multiply this by b is: 3ab

Multiply signs (×) are not written in algebra as they look too much like the letter x and confusion could arise; instead when two items are written next to each other (number next to a letter, or letter next to letter), multiplication of those two items is assumed.

So "3ab" means "3 times a times b".
