The expression \( 2, 4x * 5y \) can be interpreted as:

\[
2.4x \times 5y = 12xy
\]

The multiplication of the constants \( 2.4 \) and \( 5 \) gives \( 12 \), and then you multiply the variables \( x \) and \( y \), resulting in \( 12xy \).

Let me know if you'd like more details, or if you have any questions.

Here are 5 related questions:
1. What happens if we have a different constant multiplier?
2. How does this change if we add exponents to the variables \( x \) and \( y \)?
3. How would you differentiate \( 12xy \) with respect to \( x \)?
4. Can we factor expressions like \( 12xy \)?
5. What happens if \( x = 1 \) and \( y = 2 \)?

**Tip**: When multiplying terms with variables, multiply the constants first and then the variables separately.
