Question

after distribution, what is my next step to solving an equation?
□ combine like terms
□ divide
□ move the variable

Explanation:

After using the distributive property in an equation, the typical next - step is to combine like terms. This simplifies the equation by grouping terms with the same variables and exponents or constants together. Dividing and moving the variable are steps that come later in the process of solving an equation, after the equation has been simplified by combining like terms.
