* 2 X 12 * 4 X 6 * 24 X 1
The answer is 8. Basically how you get to the solution is simple. You have to divide 24 by 6 which is 4 if you know your multiplications of 4 and then you simply times it by 2 and then you get to the answer 8! :)
No Willow Smith does not quiet now all her multiplications. She is 10 and in the 5th grade. She is, right now, as you are reading this learning her multiplications.
lower computational complexity and requires fewer multiplications
It is the associative property, according to which, you do not need to specify which of the two multiplications has to be carried out first.
1x2 2x1
3*29 = 87
1x16, 2x8, 4x4
It could be just the multiplications of seven for sevens
At most n-1. However, it can be a lot fewer. For example, calculating A10 does not require 9 multiplications. A*A = A2 A2*A2 = A4 A4*A4 = A8 A8*A2 = A10 Only 4 multiplications were required.
The distributive property states that when you multiply a number by a sum, you can distribute the multiplication to each addend. For example, if you want to calculate (24 \times 32), you can break down 32 into (30 + 2) and then use the distributive property: (24 \times 32 = 24 \times (30 + 2) = (24 \times 30) + (24 \times 2)). This simplifies the calculation and helps in breaking down complex multiplications.
There are no units given for the multiplications; are they:The same unitsThe multiplications could be the areas of rectangles which means the results will be SQUARE unitswhich means if the difference required is in feet and NOT SQUARE feet, is it the difference in perimeter of the two rectangles?I think you need to re-ask your question with proper units included, then we can possibly answer it.
It depends on the expression.
