Answer:

7(45)=7(40)+7(5)

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to represent 7(45) using the distributive property to simplify.

We can write 45 as 40+5

So it becomes,

7(45) = 7(40+5)

Distributive property is : a(b+c)=ab+ac

a=7, b = 40 and c = 5

7(40+5)=7(40)+7(5)

So, the correct option is (4).
