We have to evaluate 4(x+3) using distributive property
The distributive property is a property used in Algebra where a number, when multiplied with a group of numbers, can be distributed to each number of the group and multiplied. Let’s look at the formula and examples for further explanations.
Distributive Property Formula –
a×(b+c)=a×b+a×c
Solution
4(x + 3)
Using distributive property,
= 4 × x + 4 ×3
= 4x + 12
= 4x+12
Answer
On solving 4(x+3) using distributive property we get 4x +12
