Reorder the terms:
a(-3 + a)(a + 7) = 0

Reorder the terms:
a(-3 + a)(7 + a) = 0

Multiply (-3 + a) * (7 + a)
a(-3(7 + a) + a(7 + a)) = 0
a((7 * -3 + a * -3) + a(7 + a)) = 0
a((-21 + -3a) + a(7 + a)) = 0
a(-21 + -3a + (7 * a + a * a)) = 0
a(-21 + -3a + (7a + a2)) = 0

Combine like terms: -3a + 7a = 4a
a(-21 + 4a + a2) = 0
(-21 * a + 4a * a + a2 * a) = 0
