Best Answer

A lot of times simplifying equations can be really easy, depending on how many numbers you have however the main thing that you want to do is combine like terms meaning combine the numbers with the same variable then move on to the rest of the problem. However if you have a bigger problem then you want to use the distributive property, and example of that would be:

4(8 + 2) ...but in distributive property would also be the same as (4 * 8) + (4 * 2)
