Math Problem Statement

Expand the brackets and simplify the expression below: 6(4d - 3) + 7d

Solution

We need to expand the brackets and simplify the expression:

6(4d3)+7d6(4d - 3) + 7d


Step 1: Expand the brackets

Distribute 66 across the terms inside the brackets:

6(4d3)=64d63=24d186(4d - 3) = 6 \cdot 4d - 6 \cdot 3 = 24d - 18


Step 2: Combine like terms

Add the expanded terms to the remaining part of the expression:

24d18+7d24d - 18 + 7d

Combine the terms with dd (like terms):

24d+7d=31d24d + 7d = 31d

So the expression becomes:

31d1831d - 18


Final Answer:

31d18\boxed{31d - 18}
