Ineed someone to write me an equation with a distributive property?
i could use any equation with a distributive property.

The distributive states that a(b + c) = ab + ac.

The distributive property is useful of simplifying parentheses.

Example:

3(x - 1) + 5 = 20

3(x - 1) expression can be simplified with the distributive property.

3(x - 1) + 5 = 20
3x - 3 + 5 = 20

After this you would combine any like terms and solve for x.

There can be also more than two terms in the parentheses:

a(b + c + d) = ab + ac + ad.

To solve this problem you must follow the proccedure below:

 1. You have the following information: 

 - April put gasoline in 4 of her 5 gallons cans.
 - She put gasoline in 6 of her 2 gallons cans. 

 2. Let's call "x" to the number of gallons of gas that she bought. Therefore, you have:

 x=(4x5 gallons)+(6x2 gallons)
 x=20 gallons+12 gallons

 3. Finally, the result is:

 x=32 gallons

 How many gallons of gas did she buy?

 The answer is: 32 gallons
