To simplify the expression 1/3(21m + 27), you need to distribute the 1/3 to both terms inside the parentheses.
First, distribute the 1/3 to the term 21m:
1/3 * 21m = (1/3) * (21m) = 7m
Next, distribute the 1/3 to the term 27:
1/3 * 27 = (1/3) * (27) = 9
Combine the simplified terms:
7m + 9
Therefore, the simplified expression is 7m + 9.
