Answer:

0.6b-3c

Explination:

0.2(3b - 15c)

we can use dispributive property because of the parentheses

by distributing 0.2 to 3b and -15c

we get 0.6b and -3c

you could be thinking why did the numbers shrink?

the numbers decrease because every time you multiply by a decimal the number decreases

High Hopes
