simplify the expression using the Distributive Property

Question

4(9n-3)

Answer 1

To simplify the expression \( 4(9n - 3) \) using the Distributive Property, you multiply 4 by each term inside the parentheses.

1. Multiply \( 4 \) by \( 9n \): \[ 4 \times 9n = 36n \]

2. Multiply \( 4 \) by \( -3 \): \[ 4 \times -3 = -12 \]

Now, combine the results: \[ 36n - 12 \]

So, the simplified expression is: \[ \boxed{36n - 12} \]
