Hi! Hope you're enjoying your day!
The Distributive Property states the following:
a(b+c)=ab+ac
- we take a and distribute it by multiplying it times b and c
Now that we know what this property states, let's simplify our expression:
4(5+x)
4 times 5 and 4 times x
Hope everything is clear.
Let me know if you have any other questions; if so, please ask.
