Question

Simplify the expression
3(1 +9u)

Answer 1

The answer is 3+27u because u multiply 3 by 1 and 3 by 9u and it equals up to 3+27u

Answer 2

Simplifying

In order to simplify this expression, I am going to use a property called the distributive property. It states that:

• 
  `\sf{a(b+c)=ab+ac}`

where a,b, and c are terms.

Basically, the idea is that you take a term 'a' and multiply it by the terms inside the parentheses (the terms are b and c).. Let's see how this works.

We're asked to simplify the expression:

`\sf{3(1+9u)}`

By using the property,

`\sf{3(1+9u)=3*1+27*u=\boxed{\bf{3+27u}}`

Therefore, our answer is 3 + 27u.
