Question

Expand the expression 1/3 (12t-15)

Answer 1

`(1)/(3) (12t-15) =(12t)/(3) -(15)/(3) =\boxed{\bf{4t-5}}`

Answer 2

`(1)/(3) (12t - 15) \\ \\ (1)/(3) * 12t (1)/(3) * -15 \ / \ distribute \\ \\ 4t + (1)/(3) * -15 \ / \ simplify \\ \\ 4t+ - (1)/(3) * 15 \ / \ simplify \\ \\ 4t - (15)/(3) \ / \ simplify \\ \\ 4t - 5 \ / \ simplify \\ \\`

Finally, we have reached our answer! The answer that expands the expression is 4t - 5.
