Question

Rewrite the expression using the Distributive Property.

Answer 1

The Distributive Property states: a(b+c) = ab+ac.

5(6+12) is the expression.

5•6+5•12 is the product of the Distributive Property.

30+60 is the product of multiplication.

Therefore, 30+60 is the correct answer.

• We just distributed the 5 to the 6 and 12 because the entire expression of 6+12 is being multiplied by the 5, hence there are parentheses.
