Question

algebra isn’t my best subject, please help

Answer 1

The Distributive property states that when we have the statement a(b + c), we can "distribute" the a by multiplying a times both terms that are inside the parenthses.

So in this problem, 2(5 + 7) can be simplified by distributing the

2 through both terms that are inside the set of parenthses.

So we have (2 · 5) + (2 · 7).

Answer 2
