Question

1. Which of the following shows the correct use of the Distributive Property when solving 1/3( 33

Answer 1

Answer:

The option $(\frac{1}{3}\times 33)-\frac{1}{3}y=\frac{1}{3}135.2$ is correct

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equation is $\frac{1}{3}(33-y)=135.2$

The option shows correct usage of distributive property is

$(\frac{1}{3}\times 33)-\frac{1}{3}y=\frac{1}{3}135.2$

( by distributive property $a(x+y)=ax+ay$ here $a=\frac{1}{3}$, x=33 and y=-y )

Therefore the option $(\frac{1}{3}\times 33)-\frac{1}{3}y=\frac{1}{3}135.2$ is correct.
