Answer:
The distributive property of multiplication
Step-by-step explanation:
we know that
The <u>distributive property of multiplication</u> states that the product of a number by a sum, is equal to multiply each addend by the number (This is called distributing the number) and then, you can add the products
so
in this problem we have
----> the number -3 is distributed
therefore
We have the distributive property of multiplication
Let the smaller number be x.
Given, the larger number is 7 times the smaller number.
So, the larger number = 7x.
Given, 3 times the larger number is 7 more than 4 times the smaller number.
So we can write the equation as,
Now we have to move 4x to the left side by subtracting 4x from both sides.
To get x, we will divide both sides by 17. We will get,
So the smaller number =
The larger number = =
So we have got the required numbers.
Smaller number = and larger number =
