Answer:


\boxed{\tt 30r-18}

Explanation:


\tt 6(5r-3)

1) Expand by distributing terms.


\tt 6* 5r+6* -3


\tt 6* 5r=\boxed{\tt 30r}


\tt 30r+6* -3


\tt 6* -3=\boxed{\tt -18}


\tt 30r-18

Solution:


\tex\text{This expression uses the \underline{distributive property.} }


\tex\text{To solve a distributive property, multiply the outside term with the inside terms.}

Step-by step calculations:


\rightarrow 6(5r - 3)

Multiplying the outside term with the inside terms:


\rightarrow (6 * 5r) + (6 * -3)


\rightarrow (30r) + (-18)

Opening the parenthesis:


\rightarrow \boxed{\bold{30r - 18}}
