Answer:

27

Explanation:

The distributive property is simple. When there are numbers inside the parenthesis and a number outside of it like in the equation, you multiply all of the numbers inside the parenthesis by the outside number.

3 ( 14 - 5 )

3 * 14 = 42

3 * -5 = -15

After this, you take the remaining numbers and use the method PEMDAS to solve the equation.

42 - 15 = 27

Your answer is 27, hope this helps :)
