Apply the distributive property to the expression to write an equivalent expression. Complete the statements. 4x + 16

Find the GCF of
✔ 4x and 16
.
Now factor out the GCF by dividing each term in the expression by
✔ 4
.
4x divided by the GCF is
✔ x
, and 16 divided by the GCF is
✔ 4
.

The equivalent expression is
✔ 4(x + 4)
.
