6.EE.3

Apply the properties of operations and combine like terms, with the conventions of algebraic notation, to identify and generate equivalent expressions. For example, apply the distributive property to the expression 3(2 + x) to produce the equivalent expression 6 + 3x; apply properties of operations to y + y + y to produce the equivalent expression 3y.
