Question 708440
To convert this expression into an equation, let's break down the words:

the product of = multiplication

the total of = addition

So, "the product of 3" means we multiply by 3, and the "total of y and 7", means we add y to 7. In other words, y + 7

Put these all together and you have:


3 x (y + 7) or 3(y + 7)
