Problem 64
Question
Simplify each algebraic expression. $$11(6 a+3 b)+4(12 a+5 b)$$
Step-by-Step Solution
Verified Answer
\[114a + 53b\]
1Step 1: Expand using distributive property
Distribute the number outside the brackets across the terms inside the brackets. For every term;\(11(6a+3b) = 66a + 33b\),\(4(12a+5b) = 48a + 20b\).
2Step 2: Combine like terms
Now add up the similar terms obtained after expanding;\(66a + 48a = 114a\), \(33b + 20b = 53b\).
3Step 3: Final simplified expression
Combine the added terms above to get the simplified expression;Final answer is \(114a + 53b\).
