Answer:

[tex]15(14a) = 210a[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to simplify the expression 15(14a) using the distributive property.

We rewrite as:

[tex]15(14a) = 15(10a + 4a)[/tex]

According to the distributive property:

[tex]a(b + c) = ab + ac[/tex]

This implies that:

[tex]15(14a) = 15 \times 10a + 15 \times 4a[/tex]

We simplify to obtain:

[tex]15(14a) = 150a + 60a[/tex]

Add on the right to get:

[tex]15(14a) = 210a[/tex]
