The distributive property states that you can distribute multiplication over addition. However, in the case of the expression "16 plus 72," you don't need to apply the distributive property directly since it involves only addition. Instead, you can simply add the two numbers together: 16 + 72 = 88. If you wanted to express it using the distributive property, you could factor out a common term, but it's not necessary for basic addition.

72.divided 4 in distributive property
9*8 = 72. You do not need the distributive property for such a basic multiplication.
18(4) 72 I distributed the 18 into the 4 and using multiplication I got 72.
Oh, dude, it's like you want me to do math or something. Okay, fine. So, 8 times 9 using the distributive property is basically 8 times (5 + 4), which equals 8 times 5 plus 8 times 4, which is 40 plus 32, so the answer is 72. Math, man, it's everywhere.
It's not necessary. Since 12 is a factor of 72, it is automatically the GCF.
It is the property of n as the additive identity.
72 + 16% = 72*116/100 = 83.52
16 + 72(-8) + 6(-2) 16 - 576 - 12 = -572
16 - 63 - 5 + 72 = 20
