In order to show the distributive property, we need to simplify both sides of the equation. The left side of the equation can be simplified as follows:
7(2+4) = 7(6) = 42
The right side of the equation is given as 14 + x.
Therefore, the number that can replace x to show the distributive property is:
42 = 14 + x
By subtracting 14 from both sides of the equation, we find that:
42 - 14 = x
x = 28
What number can replace x to show the distributive property 7(2+4)=14 + x
