Answer:
54 + 42 = 6 (9 + 7)
Sorry if this answer is not correct, if it is or is not, please tell me in the comments!
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation already gives the 7 in the parenthesis, so we know that 7 x 6 = 42.
The 6 will be on the outside of the equation since we will be using Distributive Property to multiply the 6 and 7.
Since we already know the 6 is on the outside, your new equation is:
6 x (what number) = 54
54 divided by 6 = 9
