Question

Explain how the figure illustrates that 6 (9) = 6 (5) + 6 (4)

Answer 1

You can multiply 6x5 and 6x4 then add the products, or you could simplify it by adding the numbers in parentheses and multiplying it by 6 to which you would get the same result. Remember PEMDAS: Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication, Division, Addition, Subtraction.
