Understanding Multiplication and Solving Equations

The video tutorial explains how to solve the equation 2m * k = 6 by using the associative property of multiplication. It demonstrates rewriting the equation as 2 * (mk) = 6 and then solving for mk by dividing both sides by 2, resulting in mk = 3.

What is the initial equation given in the problem?

• 2m + k = 6

• 2m * k = 6

• m * k = 6

• m + k = 6
