You can put this solution on YOUR website! An easy way to go about this is to try and get as close as possible to the original. So, within the brackets 4x has become 8x, and 5 has become 10. Therefore, we can factor out a 2 to get:
2x6(4x+5(3.14) = ?
Now we want the 6 to become a three, so we simply factor a 2 out from the 6 to give us:
2x2x3(4x+5(3.14))=?
Now you've come really close to the original. You multiply the two 2's on the outside to get:
4(3(4x+5(3.14)))
From this we know that 6(8x+10(3.14)) is equivalent to 4P.
