In this case u can’t use the distributive property. U just multiple whats in the parenthesis (39•5)=195 and that’s ur answer.
Let’s say if the problem said 5(2+1) u can’t use the distributive property bc u have to do what’s in the parentheses first. 5(3)=15
But If u had a problem like 2(4x+6) then u can use the distributive property. This is bc u can’t add 4x+6 bc they aren’t like terms. So u multiple the 2 by 4x which is 8x and the 2 by 6 which is 12 then ur answer would be : 8x+12
Answer:
umm what or we doing?
Step-by-step explanation:
Given :
Raffle tickets were sold for a school fundraiser to parents, teachers, and students. 563 tickets were sold to teachers. 888 more tickets were sold to students than to teachers. 904 tickets were sold to parents.
To Find :
How many tickets were sold to students.
Solution :
Ticket sold to teachers, T = 563 .
Ticket sold to parents, P = 904 .
Let, ticket sold to students are S.
Now, it is given that :
S = T + 904
S = 563 + 904
S = 1467 students
Therefore, tickets sold to students are 1467 .
Hence, this is the required solution.
