4 (w+9) what's the answer

Question

I didn't understand the question of this I was wondering if you could help me

 

Answer 1

Suppose you did not learn distributive property yet.  You can expand this out.

 

4(w+9) =

 

(w+9) + (w+9) + (w+9) + (w+9)

 

 

Add the binomials by combining like terms.

 

4w + 36

Answer 2

Yes, this problem is a classic distribution problem.   

 

4 (w+9)= 4•w + 4•9

4 (w+9)= 4w +36

Answer 3

The only thing which might be is to distribute

 

4(w+ 9)

4x + 36
