Given the equation:

5(r + s)

Distribute.

Solution:

In order to distribute 5 to the parenthesis, we simply multiply it with each value inside the parenthesis.

= 5 (r + s)

= 5r + 5s

Since we do not have any other conditions, and we cannot simplify further since the terms differ, then we have our final answer.

FInal answer:

= 5r + 5s
