Answer 1

2(4.1+10.5)

ok
we factor out 2 and then 4.1 and 10.5 are left inside the bracket
then we operate the bracket and add 4.1 with 10.5

then we multiply the sum with 2 :)

Answer 12

It's factoring, something you will learn once you get into higher math levels. Factoring is a very common tool we use. This is a way to get the brain used to it, I suppose, before actually implying the theory upon yourself. Work with the numbers, answers in math come easy. :)
