Question

Find the sum.

Answer 1

You are gonna use the distributive property.

4(2.5g - 4) + 3(1.2g - 2)

So you are going to multiply 4 with everything inside the first set of parenthesis and your gonna multiply 3 with everything insides the second set of parenthesis.

4 x 2.5g - 4 x 4 + 3 x 1.2g - 3 x 2

10g - 16 + 3.6g - 6

You wanna combine like terms:

10 - 3.6g + 16 - 6

6.4g + 10

You answer is 6.4g + 10.

Hope this Helps!!
