Question

Mrs. Yakubov needs to distribute 4 colored pencils and 3 glue sticks to the 6 tables in her classroom. Which expression represents the number of materials being distributed this situation? 6(4 + 3) 4(3 + 6) 3(4 + 6)

Answer 1

Answer:

$6(4 + 3)$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Pencils = 4

Glue = 3

Required

Distribute these to 6 tables

Represent the pencils with P and Glue with G

The distribution to 6 tables will be:

$6P + 6G$

Apply distributive property

$6(P + G)$

Substitute values for P and G

$6(4 + 3)$

Hence, the first option answers the question
