Use the distributive property to solve the expression. show all work! 4(a + 8)

In order to do this like they tell you you have to do distributive property, you do this by multiplying the outside number with the insides number or variables to get your full answer. First we will multiply 4 times a to get 4a and then you will multiply 4 times 8 to get 32 This means your answer is 4a+32

Hope this helps

Distributive property
a(b+c)=ab+ac
4(a+8)=4(a)+4(8)=4a+32
