The distributive property is the ability of one operation to "distribute" over another operation contained inside a set of parenthesis. So, all we (you) need to do is "distribute" the 6 to the x and 3. Observe.

6(x + 3) =

6x + 18 is the rewritten equation using the distributive property.

Answer: 6x+18

Step-by-step explanation: Because of the Distributive property, you would multiply the 6 by the’x’ and 3, as they are in the parenthesis.
