Examples of distributive property of multiplication?
The property that multiplication is distributive over addition means that a*(b+c) = (a*b) + (a*c) The usufulness of this property can be illustrated by the following example: 8*(102) = 8*(100+2) = (8*100) + (8*2) = 800 + 16 = 816. So if you split 102 into 100 and 2, and then use the distributive property, you do not need to work with a large number such as 102.
What is the distributive property of multiplication for 12 x 8?
8 x 12 = (8 x 10) + (8 x 2) = 80 + 16 = 96
Distributive property in algebra?
The distributive property is used when a number (or variable) outside parenthesis must be combined with numbers (or variables) inside the parenthesis. Here are some examples: a(b + c) = ab + ac You multiply the number outside (in this case, "a"), with the first number ("b"). Then you add that to "a" multiplied by the second number, "c". See if this helps: Outside(Inside1 + Inside2) = Outside X Inside1 + Outside X Inside2 Here's an example with numbers: 2(3 + 5) = 6 + 10 = 16 Same thing works for variables: 2(3x + 5) = 6x + 10 If this helps, recommend me.

Is the square root of 102 an irrational number?
Yes, 102 isn't a square number (1, 4, 9, 16, 25, 36, 49, 64, 81, 100, 121, 144) so the square root of 102 will keept going forever and is irrational.
