Question

Use the ditributive property for -8 (x / 3)

Answer 1

Greetings!

"Use the distributive property for $-8 (x / 3)$."

The distribute property is used to simplify an expression/equation. This is done by multiplying the contents of the parenthesis by the number outside of bracket.

$-8 (x / 3)$
$=(-8*x / -8*3)$
Simplify.
$=(-8x/-24)$


Hope this helps.
