Answer:

14w

Explanation:

I don't know how to explain it any simpler than just to give you the answer which is 14w.

There is a more mathematical way of getting the 14w, but I'm guessing you won't like it. Use the distributive property. Put brackets around the given expression

7w + 7w = (7w + 7w)

On each side of the plus sign there is a common factor and that common factor is w

w(7 + 7) Now add the two 7s together.

14w

You could say to me, why didn't you take out the 7 to start with. You could

7 ( w + w) but w and w add up to 2w

7*2w

14 w
