Question

Which property is shown by -3 x (6+5) = -3 x 6+ -3 x 5

Answer 1

The distributive property of multiplication

Explanation:

we know that

The distributive property of multiplication states that the product of a number by a sum, is equal to multiply each addend by the number (This is called distributing the number) and then, you can add the products

so

`a*(b+c)=a*b+a*c`

in this problem we have

`-3*(6+5)=-3*6+-3*5` ----> the number -3 is distributed

therefore

We have the distributive property of multiplication
