( | 30 | − | 3 | x | ) | ( | 24 | − | 2 | x | ) | = | 480 |
Left side of the equation = | 30 | ( | 24 | − | 2 | x | ) | − | 3 | x | ( | 24 | − | 2 | x | ) |
= | 30 | × | 24 | − | 30 | × | 2 | x | − | 3 | x | ( | 24 | − | 2 | x | ) |
= | 720 | − | 60 | x | − | 3 | x | ( | 24 | − | 2 | x | ) |
= | 720 | − | 60 | x | − | 3 | x | × | 24 | + | 3 | x | × | 2 | x |
= | 720 | − | 60 | x | − | 72 | x | + | 6 | x | x |
= | 720 | − | 132 | x | + | 6 | x | x |
720 | − | 132 | x | + | 6 | x | x | = | 480 |
