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

What would be the steps in solving 2b + 3b = 3?
sweet-ann [11.9K]

The answer is b=\frac{3}{5}.

Let's solve your equation step-by-step.

2b+3b=3

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

2b+3b=3

(2b+3b)=3(Combine Like Terms)

5b=3

5b=3

Step 2: Divide both sides by 5.

5b/5=3/5

So, the answer is b=\frac{3}{5}.
