Multiple 3 times 12x and you will get 36x and then multiply 3 times 7 and you will get 21

Whatever is outside the parentheses is what you are distributing to what’s inside.

So with 3, you would multiply it by 12X. You would get 36X.

Now you do the same thing. 3 times 7 is 21.

Your distributed answer is:

36X+21
