Hi,

Yes, 6(2h+1) is equivalent to 3(4h+2) because they both equal 12h+6.

Have a great day!

Solve for the first parenthesis. Distribute 6 to all terms within the parenthesis

6(2h + 1) = 12h + 6

6(2h) = 12h

6(1) = 6

12h + 6

3(4h + 2) = 12h + 6

3(4h) = 12h

3(2) = 6

12h + 6

Yes, both are equivalent to each other.

hope this helps
