Answer:

101.1

Explanation:

The distributive property states that for any numbers aa, bb, and cc, the expression a(b + c)a(b+c) is equal to ab + acab+ac.

In the case of 6(16.85)6(16.85), you can use the distributive property as follows:

6(16.85) = 6 X 16.856(16.85)=6×16.85

Now, you can simply multiply 6 by 16.85:

6 X 16.85 = 101.16×16.85=101.1

So, 6(16.85) = 101.16(16.85)=101.1.
