Question

Which expression is equivalent to 4a + 10?

Answer 1

Answer:

The equivalent expression of the given expression is 2(2a+5).

Step-by-step explanation:

The given expression is

$4a+10$

The factors of given terms are

$4a=2\times 2 \times a$

$10=2\times 5$

The common factor is 2. Take out the common factor from each term.

$4a+10=2(2a+5)$

Therefore the equivalent expression of the given expression is 2(2a+5).

Answer 2

Answer:

$\frac{4a}{10}+1$ which is equivalent expression.

$a+\frac{4}{10}$ which is equivalent expression.

Step-by-step explanation:

The equivalent expression is the expression which will maintain the symetry of the expression will not change the expression.

We have been given the expression:

$4a+10$

Now, the maximum simplified form of this expression is

we can divide the each term  by 4 we will get:

$a+\frac{4}{10}$ which is equivalent expression.

or we can divide each term by 10 we get:

$\frac{4a}{10}+1$ which is equivalent expression.
