This question has been addressed elsewhere. See: Why do students mix up addition and multiplication, in the Multivariable Chain Rule with all partial derivatives?

How can I better Figure 2 in James Stewart, Daniel Clegg, Saleem Watson, Calculus Early Transcendentals (2021 9 ed), p. 987? Addition and multiplication are missing. Figure 2 fails to picture what shall be added, and what shall be multiplied. Figure 2 keeps rooking my students into mixing up + and ×! How can I illustrate the correct combination of products and sums?
