Answer:
5(11+7) = 55+35
Explanation:
The distributive property states that when multiplying a term with a sum multiply into each term within the sum. Here you have a sum. You’ll reverse the distributive property by factoring our a term which could multiply into each. 55 and 35 both have 5 as a factor. This makes the expression 5(11+7) = 55+35.
