Answer:

36b - 2c - 6 / 3

Step-by-step explanation:

16b - 1 × 2/3 (c + 3) - 4b

Multiply the numbers:

1) 16b - 1 ×2/3 (c + 3) - 4b

16b - 2/3 (c + 3) - 4b

Combine multiplied terms into a single fraction:

2) 16b - 2/3 (c + 3) - 4b

16b + -2 ( c + 3) / 3 -4b

Distribute:

3) 16b + -2 (c + 3) / 3 -4b

16b + -2c - 6 / 3 -4b

Combine like terms:

4) 16b + -2c -6 / 3 -4b

12b + -2c -6 / 3

Find a Common Denominator:

5) 12b + -2c -6 / 3

3 × 12b / 3 + -2c - 6 / 3

Combine fractions with a Common Denominator:

6) 3 × 12b / 3 + -2c - 6 / 3

3 × 12b - 2c - 6 / 3

Multiply the numbers:

7) 3 × 12b - 2c - 6 / 3

36b - 2c - 6 / 3

SOOO, the answer issssss

36b - 2c - 6 / 3

HOPE THIS HELPS
