Question

Use the distributive property to write the following expression in expanded form. 5(7h + 3m)

Answer 1

hello!

==============================================================

The distributive property states that:-

$\bigstar{\underline{\boxed{\pmb{a(b+c)=ab+ac}}}$

Simplify:-

$\bigstar{\boxed{\pmb{5(7h+3m)}}}$

$\longmapsto\sf{(5~times~7h)+)5*3m)$

$\longmapsto\sf{35h*15m}$

===============================================================
