Answer:

Explanation:

im in 7th so i can help.

Any ways heres an example 2( 5 + 7)

what your going to do is take the number outside the bracket which is 2

and multipy it with 5 AND 7

2x5 and 2x7 so thats 10 and 14 THEN you add them together 10 +14 = 24

make sure you multiply whatever number outside the bracket with EACH of the numbers inside the bracket MULTIPLY FIRST
