Question 144846: I really need help on the Distributive Property in general, but here is one of my problems:
6a(5b+7)
3a ( it's a fraction/ can be read as: 6a(5b+7) over 3a)
Thanks a lot for helping.

We will divide 6a by 3a first, leaving 2(5b+7).
Now 2 multiplies both numbers within parentheses.
so 2(5b)+2(7)=10b+14.
