Answer:

B. False

Explanation:

Just like last time, solve it first to check.

128(4+2)=(128/4)+2

Remember PEMDAS, parenthesis first.

128(6)=(32)+2

Now multiply the left side and add the right side.

128*6=768. The star sign is just another way to write a multiplication sign.

32+2=34

768≠34

This is a false statement. 768 does not equal 34.

Hope this helps!

If not, I am sorry.
