Explain how do use distributive property to find an expression that is equivalent to 20+16?

First, I would find that the GCF of 20 and 16 is 4. Then, I would divide both 20 and 16 by 4. Last, I would use the distributive property to write the sum as 4(5 + 4).


What is an equivalent fraction with an answer of 25 in distributive property?

The distributive property is not related to finding equivalent fractions. The distributive property is a rule that states a(b + c) is equal to ab + ac. It is used to simplify expressions and perform operations like multiplication or addition. To find an equivalent fraction, you would need to multiply or divide the numerator and denominator by the same nonzero number.


How can you use the distributive property to write a number as a equivalent expression?

17*9 = 17*(10-1) = 17*10 - 17*1 = 170 - 17People who do not know the 17 times table might find the equivalent version easier to evaluate.


Which kind of expression uses the greatest common factor and the distributive property to find 42 plus 96?

An unnecessary one. 42 + 96 = 138


Why do we have to do the Distributive property rather than using order of operations?

None whatsoever. You might find the distributive property useful when trying to calculate 39*74. Of course, if you are familiar with the 39 times table or the 74 times table, the distributive property is a complete waste of time! But somehow I doubt that level of arithmetic competence.


Which expression uses the greatest common factor and distributive property to find 42 96?

(6 x 7) + (6 x 16) = 6 x 23 = 138


How do you find the gcf of 24 and 36 using distributive property?

Some people use the distributive property to add 24 and 36, but you wouldn't use it to find the GCF which, by the way, is 12.


Which expression uses the Greatest common factor and distributive property to find 9 plus 36?

(9 x 1) + (9 x 4) = 9 x 5 = 45
