Answer:

She subtracted 3.4 on the left and added 3.40 on the right

Step-by-step explanation:

3.40 + 0.85 x = 5.27

Subtract 3.40 from each side  

3.40 -3.40+ 0.85 x = 5.27-3.40

.85x = 5.27 - 3.40

.85x =1.87

Divide by .85

.85x/.85 =1.87/.85

x = 2.2

BigorU [14]

Step-by-step explanation:

It's the <em>DISTRIBUTIVE PROPERTY</em>:

m(a + b) = ma + mb

m\cdot(a+b)=m\cdot a+m\cdot b=ma+mb

Other properties:

Commutative Property:

<em>of addition: a + b = b + a</em>

<em>of multiplication: a · b = b · a</em>

Associative Property:

<em>of addition: (a + b) + c = a + (b + c)</em>

<em>of multiplication: (a · b) · c = a · (b · c)</em>
