Answer:

Second option

Explanation:

Given the following question:


8(6n+6)

To find the answer we have to simplify the following expression and then simplify the options in till we have a equivalent answer.


8(6n+6)

8*(6n+6)

8*6n=48n

8*6=48

48n+48

Now one of these options after being simplified will be equal 48n + 48.


48+6
Already simplified

First option isn't equivalent to the given expression.


8(n+5n+6)

n+5n=6n

8*(6n+6)

8*6n=48n

6*8=48

48n+48

Second option is equivalent to the given expression.

Hope this helps.
