Answer:


\huge\boxed{\boxed{6y-48}}}

Explanation:

Hello.

Let's recall that the Distributive Property states that

a(b+c)=ab+ac, where a, b, and c can be either constants or variables.

Now that we know what this property states, let's simplify the expression:

6(y-8)

Distribute 6 by multiplying it times y and -8:

6y-48

And we're done!
I hope it helps & have an outstanding day!
