4. The Distributive Property
Continue to next subchapter

Exercise 28 Page 225

Recall the Distributive Property.

7p+7q+63

Practice makes perfect
We want to simplify the given expression. To do it, we will use the Distributive Property. We will distribute 8 to the terms inside the parentheses.
7(p+q+9)
7(p)+7(q)+7(9)
7p+7q+63
Since 7p, 7q, and 63 are not like terms, the expression cannot be simplified further.
