Simplify the expression 4(2x + 8) using the distributive property.

The distributive property tells us how to solve expressions in the form of a(b + c). The distributive property is sometimes called the distributive law of multiplication and division. ... Then we need to remember to multiply first, before doing the addition!

Hence, the information sho above we can now solve the equation

4(2x + 8) without any problem.

4(2x + 8) ---> 4 * 2x + 4 * 8 ---> 8x + 32

Therefore, your finnal answer is

8x + 32
