Question

How to solve 4(b+2) if b equals 1/4

Answer 1

9

Explanation:

First you put in b, which would look like this: 4(1/4+2)

Then you could do it two ways, you can use distributive property, or just add within the parenthisis.

Distributive Property:

it would be 4* 1/4, which is one, and add 4*2, which is nine.

Parenthesis:

just add 2 and 1/4, which is 2 1/4. 2 1/4 is equal to 9/4, and that times 4 is nine.

Hope it helps!

Answer 2

The value is 9

Explanation:

Given:

4(b+2)

b=
`(1)/(4)`

Solution:

Let the given equation be Y

Y=4(b+2) .............(1)

Substituting the value of b=
`(1)/(4)` in (1) we get,

`Y=4((1)/(4)+2)`

`Y=4((1+8)/(4))`

`Y=4((9)/(4))`

`Y=9`

So, after solving the above equation, we get the value of Y is 9.
