What is 2x times 88x?

2x × 88x = ?

Here we will do more than give you the solution to 2x × 88x. We will also explain and teach you how we came up with the answer, so you can understand it and solve similar problems in the future without help.

In this problem, 2 and 88 are the coefficients and two Xs are the variables. When a coefficient is next to a variable there is an invisible multiplication sign. So you could rewrite the problem as follows:

2 × x × 88 × x =

So now you can multiply what are the same. You can multiply the coefficients together and the x variables together as follows:

2 × 88 = 176

x × x = x²

Then you put the answers together and make the multiplication sign invisible again to get the following answer:

2x × 88x = 176x²

If you multiply two same variables with exponents, you simply keep the variable and add the exponents. Also x with no exponent is the same as x¹.

Here are some problems with answers that you should know based on what you learned on this page:

2x × 88x² = 176x³

2x × 88x³ = 176x⁴

2x × 88x⁴ = 176x⁵

2x² × 88x = 176x³

2x² × 88x² = 176x⁴

2x² × 88x³ = 176x⁵
