Expand 8(3p+2) please

1 answer

To expand the expression \( 8(3p + 2) \), you can distribute the 8 to both terms inside the parentheses:

\[ 8(3p) + 8(2) \]

Calculating each term:

\[ 8 \cdot 3p = 24p \] \[ 8 \cdot 2 = 16 \]

Now, combine the results:

\[ 24p + 16 \]

So, the expanded form of \( 8(3p + 2) \) is \( 24p + 16 \).
