Question

Which of the following expressions are equivalent to 5(m + 3)?

Select two answers.

Answer 1

A and D

Explanation:

A is right because if you multiply 5 and m you get 5m then multiply 5 and 3 and you get 15 then you add them together as said in A and D is right because you have m+3+m+3+m+3+m+3+m+3 which is the same as M times 5 and 3 times 5.

Answer 2

A

Explanation:

We solve this by multiplying everything inside by three to get 5xM plus 5x3 which is simplified to 5m+15.
