Question

complete the equations by breaking 14 into two factors.

\\(14 \times 3 = \text{select factors of 14} \times 3\\)

\\(14 \times 3 = 7 \times \square\\)

\\(14 \times 3 = \square\\)

<reasoning>

Factor the number 14

\[
14 = 7 \times 2
\]

Apply the associative property

\[
14 \times 3 = (7 \times 2) \times 3 = 7 \times (2 \times 3) = 7 \times 6
\]

Calculate the final product

\[
7 \times 6 = 42
\]
