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

ioda

Greetings!

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

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.

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

Hope this helps.
