What is the Distributive Property in mathematics?

Back

The Distributive Property states that a(b + c) = ab + ac. It allows you to multiply a number by a sum by distributing the multiplication to each addend.

How do you find the difference between two numbers?

Back

To find the difference, subtract the smaller number from the larger number. For example, to find how many more books were sold in the first week than the second week, subtract the second week's sales from the first week's sales.

Front

How do you calculate the total number of items sold?

Back

To calculate the total number of items sold, subtract the number of items left from the original number of items. For example, if there were 150 baseballs and 81 were left, then 150 - 81 = 69 baseballs were sold.

Front

What does it mean to solve a multiplication problem using the Distributive Property?

Back

It means breaking down a multiplication problem into smaller, easier parts. For example, to solve 89 x 3, you can use (80 x 3) + (9 x 3).

Front

What is subtraction?

Back

Subtraction is the operation of finding the difference between two numbers. It is represented by the minus sign (-).

Front

What is the first step in using the Distributive Property?

Back

The first step is to identify the number that will be distributed and the terms inside the parentheses.

If a store sold 69 baseballs, how many were left if they started with 150?

Back

To find out how many were left, subtract the number sold from the original amount: 150 - 69 = 81 baseballs left.

What is the result of 5 x 93 using the Distributive Property?

Back

Using the Distributive Property, 5 x 93 can be calculated as (5 x 90) + (5 x 3) = 450 + 15 = 465.

Front

What is the purpose of the Distributive Property?

Back

The Distributive Property simplifies multiplication, making it easier to calculate products, especially with larger numbers.
