Question

How do you write an expression for "the product of p and q"?

Answer 1

`p xx q =pq`

Explanation:

The key word to note is 'product'. A product is the answer to a multiplication operation.
The product of 3 and 4 means `3 xx 4 = 12`
12 is the product.

In this question we are working with algebra, but it means the same.
The product of `p and q` means `p xx q =pq`

The product is `pq`. This is an algebraic term which cannot be simplified further and cannot be evaluated unless you know the values for `p and q`
