Mrs. Quotient asked her students to simplify each of the expressions below. Which of the numbered choices represents the expressions which simplified to the same result? A 126/2 B 23 * 3 C 3 * 21

When simplifying an algebraic expression, the following steps are needed to be taken.

Firstly, remove parenthesis by multiplying the constant with the term in the parenthesis or remove parenthesis using exponent rules for parenthesis in exponent form.

Secondly Combine terms by adding coefficients of terms with the same order and lastly sum all constant.

A) 126/2

Applying the division rule give:

126/2 = 63

B) 23 * 3

Applying multiplication rule gives:

23 * 3 = 69

C) 3 * 21

Applying multiplication rule gives:

3 * 21 = 63

Both the results of expression A and expression B are simplified to the same result
