Complete the following stepped out solution to show that 8(5+h+2) is equivalent to 8×h+56

Step 1: Distribute the 8 to each term inside the parentheses.

8(5 + h + 2) = (8 × 5) + (8 × h) + (8 × 2)

Step 2: Simplify each term.
(8 × 5) + (8 × h) + (8 × 2) = 40 + 8h + 16

Step 3: Combine like terms.
40 + 8h + 16 = 8h + 56

Therefore, 8(5 + h + 2) is equivalent to 8h + 56.
