Question

What is 3(4m + 2)
A. 12m + 2
B. 12m + 6
C. 18m
D. 14m

Answer 1

B. 12m + 6

Explanation:

Because there is a three, we must do three times both of the terms:

(3 x 4m) + (3 x 2)

When you do it, we get:

12m + 6

We cannot simplify it any further, so 12m + 6 is out final answer.

Hope this helped :]

Answer 2

B. 12m + 6

Explanation:

Just distribute the 3 to both 4m and 2.
