Use the Distributive Property to simplify the expression.

(10 + 4y) 1/4

if possible, (so I can use it as reference later on.) how did you come to the answer? if not that's perfectly fine but I wouldn't mind knowing so I could later figure it out when I come across a problem like this.

Respuesta :

multiply the equation by 4 to get rid of the fraction, the result is
4(10) + 4(4y) 4(1/4)
(40 + 16y) 1
40 +16y 
8(5+2y)
