How do you write an expression
the distributive property is only used when simplifying expressions or solving an equation: to write an expression just translate the question into symbols and letters - you don't need to use the distributive property or any other property for that
Basically, the perimeter of a shape is the total legnth of all it's sides, therefore to write an expression for it, you need to get the legnths of the sides (even if there is a letter (eg: n)), then put them into an expression. For instance: A polygon has 2 sides that are 15cm long, 1 side that is 22cm long, 4 sides that are n long and 3 sides that are a long. To write the expression for the perimeter of this polygon as basically as possible, you would write: 15cm + 15cm + 22cm + n + n + n + n + a + a + a Now you need to simplify it: 52cm + 4n + 3a If you were asked this question, you would write 52cm + 4n + 3a as your answer. That is an expression for the perimeter of that particular polygon. If you apply the same theory to any question like the one you asked about, you would get it right.
Restate the question: How do you write the following expression in words: 3 + 4x12? three plus the product of four and 12

You write it exactly as in the question.
82p, as it appears in the question!
Please include the expression in your question so it can be answered.
How do you write an expression
The expression is (x + 8). It's not an equation, it doesn't ask a question, and it doesn't need an answer. (The question your teacher asked you: "How would you write this expression ?" is a fine pedagogical question, but not a mathematical one.)
I cannot answer this question without knowing the numbers for the glass
how do you write an expression with three terms
This question cannot be answered. You will have to give me more detail.
the same : expression
There is no equation in the question, only an expression.
You can always write a numerical division expression as a decimal.
