Question 700732
a(b + c) = ab + ac

you multiply each term in the parenthisis with the term outside it.

example

2h+2(2h+4)=26

2h+(2*2h)+(2*4)=26

2h+4h+8=26
6h+8 =26
-8
6h=18
/6
h=3


4 x 53 
(4 x 50) + (4 x 3)
200 + 12
212


 4 x 27
=4(20 +7)
=4(20) + (7)
=80 + 28
=108 

The Distributive Property 
a(b + c) = ab + ac

 3x(x+6) 
= 3x(x) + 3x(6)
=3x2+18x

 (x + y)(x + 2y)

x(x+2y) + y(x+2y)

{{{x^2+2xy+xy+2y^2}}}

{{{x^2+3xy+2y^2}}}
