3(p + 5)

Answer 1

um, I am confused on the answer options, but 3(p+5) is equivalent

Explanation:

3p+15 is the same a 3(p+5) because in 3(p+5) we have to use the distribution property

So, it is 3p +15 here's a picture to explain it better

(3(p+45) would be too big of a number as you also use the distribution property and it would be 3p+135)
