1/6, 2/3, 3/4 is the answer
Well, we can substitute the variables and get :
9(21)+3(3)(21)+12
Then we simplify :
189+189+12
To get :
390 flowers
By the way you might be confused like I was for it said "a cake topping," whilst I assumed all tables had cake toppings which is untrue and I nearly ended up with 630 flowers.
The distributive property is used when you have a value multiplied by 2 values separated by an operation.
For example, if you have x (y + z), then you would use the distributive property to get x (y + z) = xy + xz.
