Q. Which expression is equivalent to 4(5s)4(5s)?\newlineChoices:\newline(A) s+9s + 9\newline(B) 5s+45s + 4\newline(C) s+20s + 20\newline(D) 20s20s
  1. Distribute 44: Distribute the 44 across the term inside the parentheses.\newlineTo distribute a number across terms inside parentheses, multiply the number by each term inside the parentheses.\newline4(5s)=4×5s4(5s) = 4 \times 5s
  2. Perform multiplication: Perform the multiplication.\newlineMultiply 44 by 5s5s.\newline4×5s=20s4 \times 5s = 20s
  3. Match with choices: Match the result with the given choices.\newlineThe result from Step 22 is 20s20s, which needs to be compared with the given choices to find the equivalent expression.
