Answer: \(15x + 15y\)

Step by step solution

01

Identify the numbers and variables involved in the expression

In the given expression \(15(x+y)\), we have the number 15 and the variables x and y. The distributive property will be applied to the numbers and variables involved.
02

Apply the distributive property

Now we will apply the distributive property to the expression. Specifically, we will multiply 15 with both x and y: \(15(x+y) = 15 \cdot x + 15 \cdot y\)
03

Write the final expression

After applying the distributive property, the final expression is: \(15x + 15y\)
