The question is how to show that the above two products are equal to each other.

I don't know if this is the best way, but this is how I would do it:

 

n+mk=1+mak = k=n+mk=1+mak     because  n+mk=1+mak   means the same as  k=n+mk=1+mak

 

n+mk=1+mak = km=nkm=1ak      by subtracting  m  from both sides of each equation

 

n+mk=1+mak = km=nkm=1a(km+m)         since  k - m + m  =  k

 

n+mk=1+mak = km=nkm=1a(km+m)

 

n+mk=1+mak = k=nk=1a(k+m)       because we can replace the pink text with whatever we want

 

n+mk=1+mak = nk=1a(k+m)
