The number that can replace x to show the distributive property is 20.
7(2 + 4) = 14 + 20
14 + 20 = 14 + 20
34 = 34
What number cna replace x to show the distributive property 7 (2 + 4) = 14 + x ?

WRONG
I apologize for the mistake. Let's correct it:
To show the distributive property, we need to multiply 7 by both numbers inside the parentheses and then sum the results.
7(2 + 4) = 14 + x
7 * 2 + 7 * 4 = 14 + x
14 + 28 = 14 + x
42 = 14 + x
To find the value of x, we can subtract 14 from both sides of the equation:
42 - 14 = 14 - 14 + x
28 = x
So, the number that can replace x to demonstrate the distributive property is 28.
