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


\boxed{\boxed{\bold{20+4x}}}

Hope everything is clear.

Let me know if you have any other questions; if so, please ask.
