Answer:
[tex]40 +20 = 72 -12\\\\60 = 60[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
If we have an expression in the following way:
[tex]c(a + b)[/tex]
So the distributive property says that:
[tex]c(a + b) = ca + cb[/tex]
In this case we have the expression:
[tex]4(10 + 5) = 6(12-2)[/tex]
Therefore we can rewrite it as:
[tex]4 * 10 + 4 * 5 = 6 * 12 -2 * 6[/tex]
Then we have left:
[tex]40 +20 = 72 -12\\\\60 = 60[/tex]
