13 is the same as 10 + 3, so 13*3 = (1*10) + (3*1)
(1 * 10) is because the 1 is the ten's place. (3 * 1) is because the 3 is in the one's place.
This simplifies to 10 + 3 or 13.
To apply the distributive property to an algebraic expression, you multiply each term inside the parentheses by the number or variable outside the parentheses. For example, to simplify 2(x + 3), you would multiply 2 by both x and 3, resulting in 2x + 6.
8*3.5 = 8*(3 + 0.5) which, applying the distributive property, = 8*3 + 8*0.5 = 24 + 4 = 28
In the distributive property you multiply a sum by multiplying each addend separately and then add the products, for example: 2(3-2) Imagine that there is a multiplication sign between the 2 and the parenthesis. First you solve the parenthesis and multiply by the number outside of it. 2(1) =2
For example, you use it every time you do a multiplication. For example, in the following multiplication: 13 x 2 --- 26 Actually 13 is being split into two parts, 10 + 3, and then the distributive property is applied.
distributive property of 144 and 9 is 3(36 + 3) 3 * 36 = 144, and 3 * 3 = 9 At least I believe that is right. Not sure
