Which expression shows 48 + 36 written as a product of two factors? 4(12 + 4)
12(4+3)
12(4 + 2)
4(12+8)

12(4+3)

Step-by-step explanation:

Factor out all of the problems.

Starting with 4(12+4)

This means (4*12)+(4*4)

48+16 is the answer to this

this isn't 48 + 36

12(4+3) is next

12*4 = 48

12*3 = 36

48+36 = 48 + 36

Therefore 12(4+3) is your answer
