amistre64 · Answer

n(a+b) = na + nb

amistre64 · Answer

its just multiplication; and to factor it out you simply divide it off

amistre64 · Answer

the: 3ln(2)+ln(3) : part tho, i cant make sense of that as of yet

amistre64 · Answer

ln(2) + ln(12) = ln(2*12)

ln(24) = ln(8*3)

ln(8*3) = ln(2^3) + ln(3)

ln(8*3) = 3ln(2) + ln(3)
