you can put a variable next to a number to indicate multiplication, such as 5a
it is the same thing as that, except you are using a number instead of a variable

say 5(5) was the multiplication problem
it could be written as 5 x 5 or 5(5).. same thing, it doesnt make a difference,

(2x - 4)6 --> 6 is being multiplied by what is inside the () and is next to the closing parenthesis<br><b>References : </b><br> answer is true.

4(3x - 2) –> 4 is being multiplied by what is inside the ( ) and it is next to opening parenthesis.

(2x - 4)6 –> 6 is being multiplied by what is inside the () and is next to the closing parenthesis
