Which expression is equivalent to this one? 1/6(x - 18)

A)1/6x - 18
B)1/6x • (-18)
C)1/6x - 3
D)1/6 + x - 18

Answer 1

`(1)/(6)(x-18)` Distribute 1/6(multiple 1/6 to x and -18)

`(1)/(6)(x) -(1)/(6) (18)` Simplify

`(1)/(6)x -3` Your answer is C

C, because you distribute the 1/6 to x and 18 which ends up being 1/6x - 3
