3 times X= 3X
Because it is the same as 1X plus 1X plus 1X.
The X has an 'invisible' 1 in front of it....
Another example could be, What is 4 times X + 2?
It would equal 4X + 2, because when doing algebra you can only add things called 'like terms' so you can only add things like 2y+7y and 4yz+2yz or 4+3.
But you cannot add terms that are different, such as 2y+3z or 5+7x, they will just stay the same. So, 2y+3z=2y+3z and 5+7x=5+7x
However, you can MULTIPLY anything, so 2y times 3z= 6yz (2 times 3=6) and 5 times 7x= 35x and 4x times 3x= 12x2, this is because you have 2 xs!
So overall this is what you should know from all the above:
- You can multiply un-like terms! Even if the terms (eg. 2; 3x; 7y) are not the same.
- You cannot add or subtract un-like terms. You can only leave them as they are.
- When multiplying things like x or y or z remember to do your 'powers'
Examples:
- MULTIPLYING UN-LIKE TERMS-
3n times 2m= 6mn (put letters in alphabetic order) or 5y times 4x= 20xy
2. ADDING/SUBTRACTING LIKE AND UN-LIKE TERMS-
You can add/subtract 7z+3z/ 7z-3z, = 10z/4z.
3. DOING POWERS-
x times x3= x4 because there is an 'invisible' 1 next to the first x.
And 3x2 times 4x3 = 12x6

JordanThree times X can be represented as 3X, which is a multiplication operation where the number 3 is multiplied by the variable X. This can also be written as X + X + X, indicating that X is added to itself three times. In algebraic terms, the expression 3X simplifies to 3 times the value of X.
Well honey, 3 times X is just 3X. It's as simple as that, no need to overcomplicate things. Math may not be everyone's cup of tea, but this one is a piece of cake.

2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 3 = 72
What is 12 times 11 times 3 times 3?
12 x 11 x 3 x 3 = 1188
Why 729 is a square number with a square root of 3 times 3 times 3 times 327?
729 does not have "a square root of 3 times 3 times 3 times 327" so the question does not arise. 729 is a square number with a square root of 3 x 3 x 3 because (3 x 3 x 3) x (3 x 3 x 3) = 729
What is 2 times 2 times 3 times 3 times 5 equals?
2 x 2 x 3 x 3 x5 = (2 x 2) x ( 3 x 3) x 5 4 x 9 x 5 36 x 5 180 The answer!!!!!

Does 36 equal 2 times 2 times 3 times 3?
Yes. 2 x 2 x 3 x 3 = 4 x 9 = 36
What does x times x times x times x times x equal?
x5 You have x*x*x*x*x just add up the amount of x's you have and put it after as an exponent Example: 3*3*3*3=34 y*y*y*y*y*y=y6
3 times x equals 4?
If 3 times x = 4 then x = 4/3 or 1.3333 (3 recurring)
