Answer 1

Answer:

$108.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that Anna and Joe's father donated $3 for every lap they swam in a swim-a-thon Ann swam 21 laps and Joe swam 15 laps. We are asked to find the amount of money their father donated using distributive property.

$\text{Amount of money their father donated}=\ 3(21+15)$

$\text{Amount of money their father donated}=\ 3\times21+\ 3\times15$

$\text{Amount of money their father donated}=\ 63+\ 45$

$\text{Amount of money their father donated}=\ 108$

Therefore, the amount of money donated by their father was $108.

Answer 2

21 + 15 = 36

36 x 3 = 108

Their father donated $108 to charity
