\[\left(a + b\right) \cdot 2 + \left(c + d\right) \cdot 2\]

Derivation

  1. Initial program 3.6

    \[\left(a + \left(b + \left(c + d\right)\right)\right) \cdot 2\]
  2. Using strategy rm

  3. Applied associate-+r+2.8

    \[\leadsto \left(a + \color{blue}{\left(\left(b + c\right) + d\right)}\right) \cdot 2\]

  4. Final simplification2.8

    \[\leadsto \left(a + \left(\left(b + c\right) + d\right)\right) \cdot 2\]
