Homework Statement
Just need some help to fill in the gaps expanding partial derivative brackets
Relevant Equations
##(y\frac {\partial } {\partial z}(z\frac{\partial f} {\partial x}))##

##(yz\frac {\partial^2 f} {\partial z \partial x} + y\frac{\partial f} {\partial x} \frac{\partial z} {\partial z}))##
Hi,

I just need some (hopefully) quick calculus help.

I have the following:
##(y\frac {\partial } {\partial z}(z\frac{\partial f} {\partial x}))##

After it is expanded this is the solution:
##(yz\frac {\partial^2 f} {\partial z \partial x} + y\frac{\partial f} {\partial x} \frac{\partial z} {\partial z}))##

Could someone please let me know the steps to get to the solution?

Thanks

Of course, thanks.

Its been a long day and I just couldn't see it. All I needed was a little nudge.

Thanks for the reply
