5*64/15 = 5*6 + 5*4/15 (using the distributive property of multiplication over addition). = 30 + 4/3 = 30 + 11/3 = 311/3
4 x 18 = (4 x 10) + (4 x 8)
8*3.5 = 8*(3 + 0.5) which, applying the distributive property, = 8*3 + 8*0.5 = 24 + 4 = 28
19*14 = 19*(10 + 4) = 19*10 + 19*4 = 190 + 76 = 266 (You could use the distributive property again to split 19 into 10 + 9 but that is multiplying by 19 is simple enough and using the distributive property for that is just laziness.
Yes, but it would be a pointless thing to do. The associative property is much more appropriate.
