Answer:
6 times x
Step-by-step explanation:
6x can be written as (6)(x) which can be written as 6 *x, or 6 times x.
[] When you have two numbers next to each other like this, and one of them is a variable, you multiply them together.
[] While 6x can be written as 6 x x you can see it gets confusing as the multiplication sign looks a lot like the variable, so 6 x x can be written as 6x for this reason as well

Answer:
"6 times x"
Step-by-step explanation:
=====================================
In many algebraic equations and expressions, the multiplication sign is usually omitted, especially when there is a coefficient getting multiplied by a variable.
For example, if we were to write the expression '3 times y' we would write it as '[tex]3y[/tex]' and not '[tex]3 \times y[/tex]' for efficiency.
=====================================
Hope this helps.
