Explain how distributive property can be used to expand expression on the left side of the equation 3 (x + 4) = 36

Step-by-step explanation:

you distruibute 3 to x and to 4

then 3x+12=36

subtract 12 on both sides of the equal sign after thatyou are left with 3x=24

then you divide 3 on both sides and the answer is x=8
