How could distributive property be used to multiply 43.2?
Whether or not the distributive property can or should be used depends on what you wish to multiply 43.2 by. For example, if you wish to multiply 43.2 by 10, the distributive property is irrelevant!
What is the distributive property of 10 x 46?
10*46 = 10*(40+6) = 10*40 + 10*6 (using the distributive property) = 400 + 60 = 460 Except that to multiply by 10 you should not need the ditributive property!
If multiplication exponents bracket's and addition are all present in a math calculation which one of them should always be done first?
BEDMAS= brackets, exponents,division,multiplication,addition,subtraction
Do you feel that students should be proficient in addition before learning multiplication?
Yes.
Between multiplication and addition to whom you will give more preference?
I don't know if it should be called "preference", but if an expression has both multiplication and addition in it, then the multiplication has to be done first. This is only because you'll get the wrong answer the other way, not because there's anything preferable about multiplication.
