To expand the expression \(\frac{7}{10}(5d + 6)\), you can distribute \(\frac{7}{10}\) to both terms inside the parentheses:

\[ \frac{7}{10} \cdot 5d + \frac{7}{10} \cdot 6 \]

Now, calculate each term:

  1. \(\frac{7}{10} \cdot 5d = \frac{35d}{10} = 3.5d\)
  2. \(\frac{7}{10} \cdot 6 = \frac{42}{10} = 4.2\)

Thus, the expanded form is:

\[ 3.5d + 4.2 \]

However, if we keep it as fractions, you can also write:

\[ \frac{35}{10}d + \frac{42}{10} \]

This simplifies to:

\[ \frac{35}{10}d + \frac{42}{10} \]

So, the answer to the expansion is:

\[ \frac{35}{10}d + \frac{42}{10} \]

which can also be expressed as:

\[ 35d + 42 \]

If we consider the options provided, the correct response is:

35d + 42.
