What to fill in the gap is 28x
To be able to go on with this, we need to understand what the distributive property is;
For a case (a + b) * c
Applying the distributive property, we will have;
(a * c) + (b * c)
This is what we shall need to apply in these questions;
Thus;
for
7(4x + 2);
we have ;
7(4x) + 7(2)
Opening the brackets, we have;
28x + 14
So what we shall fill in the blank space here is 28x
