Grade 6 - Expressions & Equations
Standard 6.EE.A.3 - Practice simplifying variable expressions using the distributive property.
Included Skills: Number Properties, Algebra, Mixed Equations
Apply the properties of operations to generate equivalent expressions. For example, apply the distributive property to the expression 3 (2 + x) to produce the equivalent expression 6 + 3x; apply the distributive property to the expression 24x + 18y to produce the equivalent expression 6 (4x + 3y); apply properties of operations to y + y + y to produce the equivalent expression 3y.
