Question

Can you please help me this is not a quiz this is only hw

Answer 1

To answer this question, we need to remember the Associative Property of Multiplication:

`a\cdot(b\cdot c)=(a\cdot b)\cdot c`

If we have that:

`6\cdot(2\cdot b)`

Then

`6\cdot(2\cdot b)=(6\cdot2)\cdot b=12\cdot b=12b`

Therefore, we can say that:

First Part:

`6(2b)=(6\cdot2)b`

Second Part:

`6(2b)=12b`
