Answer 2

To simplify the expression \( 25(34p + 56w) + 15(12p - 623w) \), we can start by distributing the coefficients \( 25 \) and \( 15 \) to the terms within the parentheses.

1. Distributing \( 25 \):
\[
25(34p) + 25(56w) = 850p + 1400w
\]

2. Distributing \( 15 \):
\[
15(12p) + 15(-623w) = 180p - 9345w
\]

Now, we combine the results from both distributions:
\[
850p + 1400w + 180p - 9345w
\]

Next, we combine the like terms for \( p \) and \( w \):

For \( p \):
\[
850p + 180p = 1030p
\]

For \( w \):
\[
1400w - 9345w = 1400 - 9345 = -7945w
\]

Bringing it all together, the simplified expression is:
\[
\boxed{1030p - 7945w}
\]

Answer 3

Sure! Here's the solution reformatted for easier copying:

To simplify the expression \( 25(34p + 56w) + 15(12p - 623w) \):

1. Distributing \( 25 \):
\[
25(34p) + 25(56w) = 850p + 1400w
\]

2. Distributing \( 15 \):
\[
15(12p) + 15(-623w) = 180p - 9345w
\]

Combining the results:
\[
850p + 1400w + 180p - 9345w
\]

Combining like terms for \( p \) and \( w \):

For \( p \):
\[
850p + 180p = 1030p
\]

For \( w \):
\[
1400w - 9345w = -7945w
\]

The simplified expression is:
\[
\boxed{1030p - 7945w}
\]
