\( K \underbrace{\substack{6+6(7-5) \\ 6+6(7-5)=\square \text { (Simplify your answer.) }}}_{\text {Perform the indicated operations. }} \)

To simplify the expression \( 6 + 6(7 - 5) \), start inside the parentheses: 1. Calculate \( 7 - 5 = 2 \). 2. Now substitute this back into the expression: \( 6 + 6(2) \). 3. Multiply \( 6 \times 2 = 12 \). 4. Finally, add: \( 6 + 12 = 18 \). So, the simplified answer is \( 18 \).
