Expand the expression 2/7(2s 3)
take 2/7 and multiply it by both expressions in the parentheses
2/7(2s) + 2/7(3)
4/7s + 6/7
(note this is the answer assuming that there is supposed to be a plus sign in between 2s and 3 (2s + 3) )
Answer:
\(\frac{4}{7}s+ \frac{6}{7}\)
Step-by-step explanation:
The distributive property says that:
\(a \cdot (b+c) = a\cdot b+ a\cdot c\)
Given the expression:
\(\frac{2}{7}(2s+3)\)
Apply the distributive property:
\(\frac{2}{7} \cdot (2s) +\frac{2}{7} \cdot (3)\)
Simplify:
\(\frac{4}{7}s+ \frac{6}{7}\)
Therefore, the expanded form of the given expression is, \(\frac{4}{7}s+ \frac{6}{7}\)
