72.divided 4 in distributive property
48 + 72 = 120
9*8 = 72. You do not need the distributive property for such a basic multiplication.
96+72+48+24=240
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.
12
40 + 32 = (5 x 8) + (4 x 8) = 9 x 8 = 72
The lcm of 48 and 72 is 144
48 x 72 = 3456
