Answer:


(6m-7)\cdot4 is equivalent to 24m-28

Explanation:

The distributive property enables us get rid of parentheses by multiplying the term outside by each of the term inside; a bit like algebraic expansion

It states that:


(a+b)\cdot c = a\cdot c+ b\cdot c

Therefore
(6m-7)\cdot4=6m\cdot4-7\cdot4=24m-28

Thus 24m-28 is the equivalent expression
