To use the distributive property to rewrite the expression \( 3(n + 2) \), you multiply the term outside the parentheses (3) by each term inside the parentheses:
\[
3(n + 2) = 3 \cdot n + 3 \cdot 2
\]
This simplifies to:
\[
3n + 6
\]
So, the rewritten expression using the distributive property is:
\[
3n + 6
\]
\[
3(n + 2) = 3 \cdot n + 3 \cdot 2
\]
This simplifies to:
\[
3n + 6
\]
So, the rewritten expression using the distributive property is:
\[
3n + 6
\]
