Question

Which expression is equivalent to 6(9+2) by the Distributive Property?

Answer 1

ANSWER

6(9) + 6(2)

EXPLANATION

We want to find the equivalent expression to the given expression using the distributive property.

The distributive property states that:

$a(b+c)=(a\cdot b)+(a\cdot c)$

This means that we use the number outside the bracket to multiply each of the numbers in the bracket. That is:

$6(9+2)=6(9)+6(2)$

That is the equivalent expression by Distributive property.
