Question

Which expression demonstrates how the Distributive Property could be used to find the product of 6 and 32

Answer 1

Explanation:

To find the product of 6 and 32 using the Distributive Property, we can break down one of the numbers into smaller factors and distribute them to the other number.

For example, we can break down 32 into 2 and 16.

Using the Distributive Property, we can rewrite the expression as:

6 * (2 + 16)

Expanding the expression, we have:

6 * 2 + 6 * 16

Simplifying each multiplication, we get:

12 + 96

Combining like terms, we have:

12 + 96 = 108

Therefore, the expression 6 * (2 + 16) demonstrates how the Distributive Property can be used to find the product of 6 and 32.
