write the following in a more condensed from by leaving out a multiplication symbol.

Answer:
Choice D
Explanation:
In algebra when working with variables, you can leave out the multiplication sign when taking the product of two numbers.
For example,
[tex]\begin{gathered} a\times b=ab \\ w\times\frac{1}{x}=w\frac{1}{x} \end{gathered}[/tex]Having that in mind, we can write
[tex]\frac{1}{4}\cdot z=\frac{1}{4}z[/tex]which is choice D in the answer choices.
