60 x 2.5 = (60 x 2) + (60 x 0.5)
The distributive property involves both a multiplication and an addition.
You need three numbers to apply a distributive property.
3*62 = 3*(60 + 2) which, using the distributive property, is= 3*60 + 3*2 = 180 + 6 = 186.
44 x 60 = (40 x 60) + (4 x 60) = 2400 + 240 = 2640
To use the distributive property to calculate 44 x 60, you can break down one of the numbers. For example, you can express 60 as 60 = 50 + 10. Then, apply the distributive property: 44 x 60 = 44 x (50 + 10) = (44 x 50) + (44 x 10). Now, calculate: 44 x 50 = 2200 and 44 x 10 = 440, so 2200 + 440 = 2640. Thus, 44 x 60 = 2640.
5(5 * 2.4)
60 x 44 = 60 x 40 + 60 x 4 = 2400 + 240 = 2640
5 x 5 = 25
40 x 27 does not exhibit the distributive property.

The distributive property states that for any real numbers a, b, and c, a(b + c) = ab + ac. In the case of finding the product of 7 and 65, we can apply the distributive property to break down the multiplication into simpler operations. Therefore, 7 x 65 can be calculated as 7 x (60 + 5) = (7 x 60) + (7 x 5) = 420 + 35 = 455.
(5 x 5) + (5 x 16) = 5 x 21 = 105
