B

Which is another way to write the following problem using the distributive property – 6 x (20 + 6)?

a) (20 x 6 + 12 x 6)b) (26 x 6) + 6c) (6 x 20) + (6 x 6)d) 26 x 6

CGood job. Keep going.

Which shows the distributive property as it applies to this problem - 40 x 17?

a) (40 x 10) + (40 x 7) = 40(10 + 7)b) 40 x 17 = 17 x 40c) 680 + 0 = 0 + 680d) 680 x 1 = 1 x 680

A

C

Which correctly uses the distributive property?a) 6 x 98 = (6 x 90) + (6 x 8)b) 6 x 98 = (3 x 2) + (90 x 8)c) 6 x 98 = (6 x 90) + 8d) 6 x 98 = 98 x 6

A

Which correctly uses the distributive property?

a) 9 x 54 = (3 x 3) + (50 x 4)b) 9 x 54 = (9 x 50) + (9 x 4)c) 9 x 54 = (9 x 50) + 4d) 9 x 54 = 54 x 9
