Answer 1

The answer is 4(p−2)

Explanation:

Answer 2

Option (4) is correct.

Given expression 4p - 8 is equivalent to 4(p - 2)

Explanation:

We are given an expression 4p - 8 .

We have to find an equivalent expression from the given options.

Equivalent expressions are those expression that are different in looking but both have same value as the given expression.

Consider 4p - 8

4p-8 can be written as 4p - 4 × 2

Taking 4 common from both the terms, we get,

⇒ 4 (p - 2)

Thus, given expression 4p - 8 is equivalent to 4(p - 2)

Thus, option (4) is correct.
