Answer: 250

Explanation:

This problem is attempting to explain the distributive property to you.

The distributive property states that if you have the numbers a, b, and c:


(a*c) + (b*c) = c * (a+b)

In your specific case, this would look like this:


(23+37) * 4(1)/(6)


60 * ((4*6)+1)/(6)


60*(25)/(6)

To simplify, we factor a 6 out of the equation:


10*25 = 250
