Answer:
28 million college students.
Step-by-step explanation:
We can represent all college students as x. This means that all part-time college students are 
. Because all part-time college students are also equal to 8.6 million, we have 
. To find the number of total college students, or x, we have to multiply by 100/31 to get rid of the fraction on the other side:
The left side of the equation evaluates as 
. Because we are asked to round to the nearest million, we have to round to 28 million, which is the closest.
Answer:
Distributive Property
Step-by-step explanation:
5y + 2 + 6 + 2y
= 5y + 2(y + 3) + 2 This is the distributive property of multiplication w.r.t. addition
= 6y − y + 2y + 10 − 4 + 2
The distributive property of multiplication with respect to addition is the one which separates each term by using multiplication and then addition.
So we see that 2 is multiplied with y and 3 and then added with the like terms. If there was a minus sign the property would be distributive over subtraction.
