How can you use the distributive property to write an equivalent expression for [tex]2l + 2w[/tex]? Explain.

You can do 21+(2 w) because 2w is equal to 2 w
FYI *=Multiplication

Distributive property means that we can take factor in from of parenthesis. 2l+2w=2(l+w) The number is not changed, because factor can be easily multiplied by every argument in front of parenthesis.

Using the distributive property, 2 l + 2 w can be rewritten as 2 ( l + w ) by factoring out the common factor of 2. This shows both expressions are equivalent. The distributive property helps simplify expressions by factoring out common terms.
