Question

What is 4 x (5+3) = (4x?) + (4x?)

Answer 1

x=0

Explanation:

4x (5x+3) = (4x) + (4x)

4x (5+3) = 4x + 4x

4x (5+3) = 8x

32x=8x

32x-8x=8x-8x

24x=0

x=0

Answer 2

Answer: x=4 (if that’s what your asking)

To solve: Solve the equation with the filled information, (the left side) which would be followed by PEMDAS. You would get 32,now your other side has to equal 32, too. And if you fill there x with 4 you would get 32 again.
