Answer:

distributive property

Step-by-step explanation:

we know the distributive property states that the multiplication of a number (in this case, the number 4) by a sum (in this case is a subtraction: x-6) is equal to the sum of the multiplications of that number for each of the terms that belong to the sum:

we have: 4(x-6)

we apply the distributive property, so we have

4(x-6)=4*x-4*6

4(x-6)=4x-24

What is 8,792 as a fraction?

Wittaler [7]

We have a number $8.792$ .

To write it as a fraction first count the number of decimals and call it $n$ (which, in our case, has a value of 3). Multiply the number with $10^n$ to get $8792$ . Then divide this number by $10^n$ to get $\frac{8792}{10^n}$ from here you can either simplify (if the assignment says so, then the simplified fraction is $\frac{1099}{125}$ ) or not.

Hope this helps.
