Question

Use the distributive property to solve : 20 (30 - 15) =

Answer 1

Answer: 300

Step-by-step explanation: The distributive property tells us that when there's a number outside a set of parentheses, you can multiply it times each of the terms that are inside the set of parentheses and then add those products together.

So in this problem, we can multiply 20 (30) - 20 (15) which simplifies to 600 - 300 which is 300.

Answer 2

Answer:

the distribute property is basically taking the number outside the parenthesis and multiplying with the numbers inside each by each.

Step-by-step explanation:

20(30-15)

20×30= 600, and 20×15=300

finally you just use the new numbers and solve the solution which is 600-300. The answer is 300
