We have to divide 48 by 3 using distributive property.

Division using distributive property is used as it is much easier and accurate.

For dividing 48 by 3, we split first 48 as a multiple of 3 and 10

i.e. 48 = 30+18

Now divide again 18 as 3x5 +3

i.e. 48 = 30+15+3

By distributive property we have 48/3 = (30+15+3)/3 =30/3 +15/3 +3/3

Now easier to calclate this

30/3 = 10 : 15/3 =5 and 3/3 =1

Hence 48/3 = 10+5+1=16

<u>Answer:</u>

16

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

The distributive property for division simply means that you can split the quantity of the given number into smaller chunks that are easier to divide.

Here in this case, we are to divide 48 by 3 so we will split 48 into numbers that are easily divisible by 3:

48 ---> 30 + 18

30 and 18 can be further be split into ---> (15 + 15) + (15 + 3)

Dividing these numbers by 3 to get:

\frac{15}{3} +\frac{15}{3}+ \frac{15}{3} +\frac{3}{3} = 5+5+5+1=16

We choose a 4-digit number randomly. What is the probability that all its digits are even? help asap
Vlad1618 [11]

Answer:

It's very simple. In 4 decimal digits there are 10,000 (0000 to 9999) possible values. The odds of any one of them coming up randomly is one in 10,000. A specific "4 digit number" would have 1/9000 chance, since there are 9000 4 digit numbers (1000-9999).

Answer:

B.

Step-by-step explanation:

So we know right off the bat the angles ABE and CBD are congruent because of vertical angles.

Now we can look at the sides.

The ratio for 27:18 = 3:2

The ratio for 36:24 = 3:2

They check out.

That means that the answer is B. SAS

Mai and Tyler work on the equation 2/5b+1=-11 together. Mais soulution is b=-25 and Tyler’s is b=-28. Here is their work. Do you
Anika [276]

Answer:

No I don't agree with their solution; both their answers are wrong.

Correct answer is b=-30.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

\frac{2}{5}b+1=-11

Now given:

According to Mai b = -25 and According to Tyler b = -28

Now we need to find which of them is correct.

So we will solve the given equation we get;

\frac{2}{5}b+1=-11

Subtracting both side by 1 we get;

\frac{2}{5}b+1-1=-11-1\\\\\frac{2}{5}b =-12

Now Multiplying both side \frac{5}{2} we get;

\frac{2}{5}b\times\frac{5}{2}= -12 \times \frac{5}{2}\\\\b=-6\times 5\\\\b=-30

Hence both of them are incorrect, correct answer is b=-30.
