Question

What is equivalent to the answer in

8(2y+1/4)?

FYI the “1/4” is not divided it’s a fraction

Answer 1

16y + 2

Explanation:

Now we have to,

→ Find the equivalent expression.

The expression is,

→ 8(2y + (1/4))

Let's simplify the expression,

→ 8(2y + (1/4))

→ 8(2y) + 8(1/4)

→ 16y + (8/4)

→ 16y + 2

Hence, the answer is 16y + 2.

Answer 2

`\boxed{\textsf{16y + 2 is Equivalent to 8 (2y + 1/4).}}`

Explanation:

`\textsf{We are asked to find an \underline{equivalent expression}.}`

`\textsf{This expression is set up to allow us to use the \underline{Distributive Property}.}`

`\Large\textsf{What is the Distributive Property?}`

`\textsf{The \underline{Distributive Property} is a property that allows us to distribute.}`

`\large\underline{\textsf{For this problem;}}`

`\textsf{We can use the Distributive Property to distribute the 8 into values in the Parentheses.}`

`\large\underline{\textsf{Distribute:}}`

`\mathtt{8(2y+(1)/(4) )}`

`\mathtt{(8 * 2y) + (8 * (1)/(4)) .}`

`\boxed{\textsf{16y + 2 is Equivalent to 8 (2y + 1/4).}}`
