2a x 3b = 6ab
6ab / 3b = 2a so b / b cancels each other out 6 / 3 = 2 / 1 Example: a = 4 and b = 5 6ab = 6 x 4 x 5 = 120 3b = 3 x 5 = 15 120 / 15 = 24 / 3 = 8 = 2a = 2 x 4
The height of an equilateral triangle is √3/2 x side_length. So for an equilateral triangle of side length 2a, the area is: area = 1/2 x base x height 1/2 x (2a) x (√3/2 x 2a) = √3 a2

2a -3 means 2 times a minus 3 if a = 2 we have 2 x 2 - 3 = 4 - 3 = 1
2a x 3b = 6ab
2a x 3b = 6ab
6ab / 3b = 2a so b / b cancels each other out 6 / 3 = 2 / 1 Example: a = 4 and b = 5 6ab = 6 x 4 x 5 = 120 3b = 3 x 5 = 15 120 / 15 = 24 / 3 = 8 = 2a = 2 x 4

2a -3 means 2 times a minus 3 if a = 2 we have 2 x 2 - 3 = 4 - 3 = 1
The answer is 4a^2.
a x a means that a is multiplied by a. 2a means that a is multiplied by 2. Unless a happens to be 2, a x a will give a different result.The difference is a x (a-2). for example if a = 2, then the difference is zero. If a = 3, the difference is 3The operators are different: 2a = a + a (addition).
2a2 x 3a-3 = (2 x 3)a(2 + -3) = 6a-1

20 = 1Consider what is the value of 2a ÷ 2a? Any number divided by itself is 1. Thus:2a ÷ 2a = 1The law of indices says that when dividing, they are subtracted, for example:25 ÷ 22 = (2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2) ÷ (2 x 2) = 2 x 2 x 2 = 23 = 25-2So 2a ÷ 2a is (also):2a ÷ 2a = 2a-a = 20Since any number subtracted from itself is 0 (= a - a). This must have the same value as before, thus:20 = 1The 2 above can be replaced by any number x which means that any number to the power 0 is 1:x0 = 1
