In 3-10 use the distributive property to find each missing factor

Elanso [62]

The missing factor in the equation is -21

<h3>What is a distributive factor?</h3>

The Distributive Property introduces the multiplication operator an existing mathematical statement that involves the addition operator.

From the complete question, the equation is given as:

$6 \times x= (3 \times 7) + (x \times 7)$

Where x represents the missing factor.

So, we have:

$6x= (21) + (7x)$

Remove brackets

$6x= 21 + 7x$

Collect like terms

$6x-7x= 21$

Evaluate the like terms

$-x= 21$

Divide both sides by -1

$x= -21$

Hence, the missing factor in the equation is -21
