To determine which expression is NOT the same as \(12 \times 7\), we can evaluate each option:

  1. \( 6 \times 6 \times 7 \)
    This equals \( 36 \times 7 \), which is not equal to \( 12 \times 7 \).

  2. \( 1 \times 12 \times 7 \)
    This equals \( 12 \times 7 \), so this is equal.

  3. \( 2 \times 6 \times 7 \)
    This equals \( 12 \times 7 \), so this is also equal.

  4. \( 3 \times 4 \times 7 \)
    This equals \( 12 \times 7 \), so this is also equal.

Based on the calculations:

  • \( 6 \times 6 \times 7 \) is NOT equal to \( 12 \times 7 \).

Therefore, the expression that is NOT the same as \( 12 \times 7 \) is:

6 x 6 x 7
