To expand the expression -5/6(9b - 12), we need to multiply each term inside the parentheses by -5/6:
-5/6(9b) - 5/6(-12)
Multiplying -5/6 by 9b and -12 gives us:
-45b/6 + 60/6
Simplifying the expression gives:
-45/6 * b + 10
Therefore, -5/6(9b - 12) expands to -45/6b + 10.

Expand −5/6(6b−12) (1 point)
To expand the expression -5/6(6b - 12), we need to multiply each term inside the parentheses by -5/6:
-5/6 * 6b -5/6 * (-12)
Multiplying -5/6 by 6b and -12 gives us:
-30b/6 + 60/6
Simplifying the expression gives:
-5b + 10
Therefore, -5/6(6b - 12) expands to -5b + 10.
-5/6 * 6b -5/6 * (-12)
Multiplying -5/6 by 6b and -12 gives us:
-30b/6 + 60/6
Simplifying the expression gives:
-5b + 10
Therefore, -5/6(6b - 12) expands to -5b + 10.
