What does the distributive property combine to make multiplying whole numbers simpler

Mathematics

8 0

The distributive property in a given field combines multiplication with addition, that is in a field <span>F<span>, any elements <span><span><span>a<span>,b</span></span> and </span><span>c which satisfy the following rule:</span></span></span></span>

<span>a(b+c<span>)=</span><span>ab</span>+<span>ac</span></span>

<span><span> </span> </span>

<span>The whole numbers are a subset of the field </span><span>R, which is composed of all rational and irrational numbers, hence the whole numbers satisfy this property. Therefore, if I wish to multiply 5 and 10, I can split this down to simplify the problem (or simply highlight the logical reasoning behind how long multiplication works.) To demonstrate:</span>

<span>5∗10=5∗(2+8<span>)=</span>5∗2+5∗8=10+40=50</span>

<span> </span>

Who is the tallest 35 5/6, 35 3/8, 35 1/4, 35.1, or 35.7
castortr0y [4]

Based on the heights of the people, the person who is the tallest amongst them is the height of 35 5 / 6.

<h3>How to find the tallest?</h3>

To find the tallest person, convert all the given heights to decimals to make comparison easier.

When converted, the heights are:

= 35 + 5/6

= 35 + 0.83

= 35.83

= 35 + 3/8

= 35 + 0.375

= 35.375

= 35 + 1/4

= 35 + 0.25

= 35.25

35.1

35.7

Going by the decimals, the person with the greatest height and so is the tallest is 35 5 / 6.

What is the area of a square rug that measures 6 feet on a side? 3 square feet 24 square feet 12 square feet 36 square feet
QveST [7]
Well we know the area of a square is l*w, or s^2. So we can use s^2 where s=6 in your case. Now 6^2 is 6*6, which is 36.

So the area of a square rug that measures 6 feet is 36 feet

Answer= 36 feet
