Question

Help me out
6n+3m-2n-2n

Answer 1

Our answer is 2n + 3m.

`\Large\texttt{Explanation}`

We are asked to simplify the following expression:

6n + 3m - 2n - 2n

Combine like terms:

6n - 2n - 2n + 3m

4n - 2n + 3m

2n + 3m

`\therefore` 2n + 3m

Answer 2

Explanation:

to solve this problem, we need to collect the like terms of m and n.

`6n+3m-2n-2n` can be simplified by moving the n's around each other then subtract using arithmetic.

`6n-2n-2n+3m\\=6n-4n+3m\\=2n+3m`

this works because we can factor out the n, as seen here:

`6n-2n-2n+3m=n(6-2-2)+3m=2n+3m`
