3(2y - 5)

Based on the fact that this is an expression, the most likely task is to simplify. We start by removing the parentheses using the distributive property:

3(2y - 5) = 3(2y) + 3(-5) = 6y - 10.

This is as far as we can go because the two terms remaining are not alike. The answer is:

6y - 10.

(3*2y) - (3*5)
