(1-2a)(1-3a)=

Solution for (1-2a)(1-3a)= equation:

Simplifying
(1 + -2a)(1 + -3a) = 0

Multiply (1 + -2a) * (1 + -3a)
(1(1 + -3a) + -2a * (1 + -3a)) = 0
((1 * 1 + -3a * 1) + -2a * (1 + -3a)) = 0
((1 + -3a) + -2a * (1 + -3a)) = 0
(1 + -3a + (1 * -2a + -3a * -2a)) = 0
(1 + -3a + (-2a + 6a2)) = 0

Combine like terms: -3a + -2a = -5a
(1 + -5a + 6a2) = 0

Solving
1 + -5a + 6a2 = 0
